THE SOCIALIST'S CHURCH CHAPTER I THE CHURCH AS AN INSTRUMENT OF SOCIAL REFORM It was early in the year 1850 that F. D. Maurice and the little band of men he had gathered round him first gave utterance to that most pregnant phrase, Christian Socialism. And from that time onwards there have always been Churchmen who have insisted that the principles of Socialism are distinctly Christian principles. They have done this, as Maurice and Kingsley and the others did it, in the face of a twofold opposition, being attacked by those Socialists who held that in order to establish Socialism you must destroy Religion, as well as by those Christians who maintained that it was life after death, or only spiritual matters here and not a righteous condition of industry on earth, that Religion had to deal with. This A attack is still going on. Mr. Blatchford and Mr. Belfort Bax are as vehement against what they suppose to be the Christian Religion as ever Karl Marx was; and, on the other hand, there are still some Churchmen who teach that the poor's chief duty is contentment. But on the whole the situation has changed and is changing; Mr. G. Bernard Shaw's declaration of his belief that it is only by means of Religion that Socialism can be accomplished is as significant on the one side as the declarations made by Bishops and others at the Carlisle Church Congress were on the other: it still indeed pays the opposite party at an election to call the Socialist or Labour candidate an atheist, but such candidates--if they have not the electoral courage to reply, "If I am an atheist, what has that to do with the question, or with you?"--are easily able to get priest after priest to come to their support Now, even though the next general election may not turn, as...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If anyone was ever a socialist, it was Jesus."—Kelley Rose, Democratic Socialists of America Economist and historian Lawrence W. Reed has been hearing people say "Jesus was a socialist" for fifty years. And it has always bothered him. Now he is doing something about it. His new book demolishes the claim that Jesus was a socialist. Jesus called on earthly governments to redistribute wealth? Or centrally plan the economy? Or even impose a welfare state? Hardly. Point by point, Reed answers the claims of socialists and progressives who try to enlist Jesus in their causes. As he reveals, nothing in the New Testament supports their contentions. Was Jesus a Socialist? could not be more timely. Socialism has made a shocking comeback in America. Poll after poll shows that young Americans have a positive image of socialism. In fact, more than half say they would rather live in a socialist country than in a capitalist one. And as socialism has come back into vogue, more and more of its advocates have tried to convince us that Jesus was a socialist. This rhetoric has had an impact. According to a 2016 poll by the Barna Group, Americans think socialism aligns better with Jesus's teachings than capitalism does. When respondents were asked which of that year's presidential candidates aligned closest to Jesus's teachings, a self-proclaimed "democratic socialist" came out on top. Sure enough, the same candidate earned more primary votes from under-thirty voters than did the eventual Democratic and Republican nominees combined. And in a 2019 survey, more than 70 percent of millennials said they were likely to vote for a socialist. Was Jesus a Socialist? expands on the immensely popular video of the same name that Reed recorded for Prager University in July 2019. That video has attracted more than four million views online. Ultimately, Reed shows the foolishness of trying to enlist Jesus in any political cause today. He writes: "While I don't believe it is valid to claim that Jesus was a socialist, I also don't think it is valid to argue that he was a capitalist. Neither was he a Republican or a Democrat. These are modern-day terms, and to apply any of them to Jesus is to limit him to but a fraction of who he was and what he taught."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite an anti-religious reputation and the anti-religious worldview of many members, the American Socialist movement held a primarily religious and moral attraction for a small but highly articulate group of American Christians of diverse religious tradition. This study explores the dramatic and at times dangerous lives of individuals who found in the vibrant, growing socialist movement before World War I the grounds for hope that the biblical ideals of human worth and economic justice would at last be fulfilled. Its subjects are male and female, black and white, native- and foreign-born, clergy and lay people, and products of Christian traditions ranging from African-American Baptist to Episcopalian. Readers will find not Milquetoasts standing hesitantly on the sidelines, but Christians with an unequivocal commitment to the complete socialist program who made major contributions to socialist work as authors, political candidates, and party leaders. Biographical chapters examine the interaction between their subjects' experiences amidst the suffering of an urban-industrial society and their religious commitments, the perspectives on the meaning of socialism they brought to their work for the Socialist Party of America, and their careers after war and the rise of communism shattered the socialist movement. These biographies and an introductory chapter on the wider relationships between religion and socialism in Progressive-era America demonstrate that Christians made quite substantial contributions to the party, and that, far from being a monolithic group, they spread out across the spectrum of socialist ideology and tactics. Other issues include attempts to spread socialism within the churches, the Socialist Party's debates over religion, Roman Catholic efforts to prevent Catholic workers' acceptance of socialism, and the ethical qualities that made socialism appealing to Christians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Socialists Don't Sleep is one of those timely books that just points out the roots of what's gone wrong in America, how we can get our country back on track to what founders envisioned and the Judeo-Christian community that holds the key to America's long-term successes." — Gov. Mike Huckabee, New York Times Bestselling author & Host of Huckabee Socialists Don't Sleep: Christians Must Rise or America Will Fall is about all the sneaky ways the secular left has pressed Socialism into American politics and life – AND WHY CHRISTIANS ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN STOP IT! Socialists Don't Sleep tells how America has gone from a country of rights coming from God – NOT government – to a country that embraces Socialism – where the US government is now expected to pretty much provide from cradle to the grave. Cheryl K. Chumley, an award-winning journalist and contributing editor to The Washington Times, explains how to return the country to its glory days of God-given, and why Christians, more than any other group, are best equipped to lead the way. “Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — when it comes to socialism in America, these two aren't the problem. Per se. They're simply symptoms of the real problems that usher in Socialism: a dysfunctional entitlement-minded society, a propaganda-pushing school system, a decayed culture, a sieve-like border. As Cheryl Chumley points out in Socialists Don't Sleep, we can't root out socialism unless we first address the real problems.” — Michael Savage, New York Times Bestselling author & host of The Savage Nation
Download or read book The 12 Commandments of Socialism written by A.Y Ph.D. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 12 Commandments of Socialism is an in-depth description of the reality of life and the reality of socialism in socialist countries. It proves the limited freedom and serious violations of human rights. It presents how freedom is exercised with the limited accesses to Free Press, Free Speech, Free Assembly, Free Trials By Jury, Free Travel, Free Votes and Free Social Benefits The 12 Commandments of Socialism also leads the readers to the enlightenment and the fact that the socialist egalitarian utopia has never become a reality in any country that had and has been applying socialism in more than one century of its existence. Socialism indeed delivers so many injustices, sufferings, inequalities, suppressions, poverty and deaths. The 12 Commandments of Socialism is not a speculation or theory but it is well supported with many true stories of socialist victims. These victims faced either the life-long imprisonment and hard labor camps for 10 years to 30 years or the execution of their lives and the endless sufferings of their family members. Millions of people were starved or run their exodus from the socialist regimes. The 12 Commandments of Socialism is composed with a great writing style and rhetorical devices that are used to lead the readers to the reality of socialism and remind the readers to be discerning to the many great and tempting promises of socialism and the socialists who promise heaven but hell is the final outcome and destination. The 12 Commandments of Socialism is also a great philosophical and religious discussion of many areas of life and value. Thus is it not only a great book for reading but also for reflections and refreshments. It is also a touching and inspiring book for a must-to-read book
Download or read book Christian Socialism written by Philip Turner and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2022-05-26 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Socialism arose in England in the mid-nineteenth century as a response to the philosophy of 'political economy' - now commonly called neoliberalism. Seeking not institutional change or nationalisation, but a reform of the moral underpinnings of society, it refuted the assumption that people are essentially selfish, competitive individuals seeking nothing but personal happiness. Although they did not deny the presence of selfishness, its proponents believed that the social nature of humankind lies deeper than such egotism and conflict, and pursued a society built on this belief. Less prominent now than at the time of its inception, Christian Socialism nevertheless continues into the twenty-first century, its goal nothing less than a new society built upon the virtues of equality, fellowship, cooperation, service and justice. Philip Turner's careful exposition traces the history of this strand of Anglican political thought and restores confidence in its message for the future.
