Is The Bible's God a Communist?



Most Christian fundamentalists are fervent anti-Communists. But can the same be said about their god? Let us open our Bible to Acts 4:34 - 5:11.


It reads: "Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, and laid them down at the apostles' feet: and the distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.


"And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus. Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.


"But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, and kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.


"But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?


"Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.


"And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.


"And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.


"And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.


"And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.


"Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.


"Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.


"And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things."


PRAISE GAWD!!!


If that isn't hard-core Communism I don't know what is! There was an attempt at equal distribution of wealth which is at the heart of Communist theory. In the above Bible story the Bible god was the KGB who carried out the dirty work of dealing with the nonconformists. Perhaps Marx and Mao were influenced by this Bible episode!


Tyranny needs fear, whether it's tyranny of the mind and spirit or of the person. Both "revealed" religion and Communism are happy when "great fear" is upon all the people.


Even though Communism is responsible for many more deaths than the Nazis, it doesn't come close to the killings brought about by "revealed" religion! Just look at the violent Pass Over horror story not to mention the flood that even took the lives of innocent unborn children!


It's past time for a Revolution in Religion! Our spiritual lives need to catch up with the advances society have made in science and technology. It's time for DEISM!
