-LIBERAL SOCIALIST MARXISM AGENDA VS./ SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION IN JESUS CHRIST.-
[By: Franklin Graham [Decision]

The growing push of many countries around the globe--like Bolivia and Venezuela--to embrace a socialist, Marxist agenda leaves most everyone with a deep sense of disillusionment. Citizens are promised that government can solve the ills of society, and governments unfailingly disappoint. In fact, most socialist regimes simply replace unsatisfactory, often unethical political parties with their own flawed, corrupt versions of the same.

This is because the deep, systemic problems that plague any nation--whether democratic, socialist or communist--are far too entrenched for any mere political solution. Dishonesty, greed, corruption and other evils have marked every form of government for millennia.

The Bible says that the "heart of man is deceitful above all things and desperately sick" (Jeremiah 17:9). Paul wrote in Romans 3:9 that "none is righteous, no, not one."

The solution that mankind so desperately needs, then, is spiritual--a transformation that comes only as the Lord Jesus Christ reigns in the hearts of people. Only then can societies experience the true virtues of Biblical compassion, honesty, humility and wisdom.

I also know that impending death can have a very strong and clarifying effect upon a person. The prospect of facing one's imminent demise can quickly crystalize the most important question a person will ever ask--where will I spend eternity after I die?

This I also know: The grace of God is always sufficient for anyone who turns to Him in genuine repentance and faith. As Christ hung on the Cross between two thieves, one mocked Him, but the other cried out: "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom" (Luke 23:42). Jesus, bloody and bearing the sins of the world, responded: "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise" (Luke 23:43).
