Communist Failure - Christian Success

Volume 5 1989

“Communism is a religion of hatred, built upon lies. Christianity is a religion of love, built upon the truth. Communism proudly declared that they would produce ‘the new man’ — an unselfish, hard-working, civic-minded individual who will work according to his fullest ability for only his barest needs. Now, 44 years later, we are still waiting for this new man. But the churches are full. Communism is bankrupt. Socialism is a failure. But the church is succeeding where society has failed:

Drunkards are now sober,
Thieves have become honest,
Adulterers are now moral,
Murderers now love,
Liars are now speaking the truth.
Happy is the nation which has Christian Citizens.

“In the 1960’s when I began this work into Eastern Europe more than 75% of pastors did not even have a single copy of the Bible. Many of those who had Bibles had handwritten Bibles — copied from the few who had them. Now, because of energetic missionary work and Bible smuggling, most pastors have a Bible, but not all Christian homes. There are still many millions of believers lacking their own copy of the Bible.”

Rev Bill Bathman
