For years now we have heard the far right preach about the immorality of the United States, and more specifically, of the left. They claim that we are at war with god and intent on destroying him. But is it we, or they, who serve are the enemies of Christ

At the core of the right wings ideology is the worship of self interest above all else. The right claims that to "give handouts to the poor" is in itself evil. And in fact scream most petulantly at the very concept of "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs". IE the communist/marxist creed. But what does the bible have to say of this?
The apostles taught the followers of christ to do thus:
Acts 2:44-45 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need
And when god blessed his followers:
Acts 4:34-37)And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
Exodus 16:16 "This is what the LORD has commanded, 'Gather of it every man as much as he should eat; you shall take (A)an omer apiece according to the number of persons each of you has in his tent.'"
The sons of Israel did so, and some gathered much and some little.
When they measured it with an omer, (B)he who had gathered much had no excess, and he who had gathered little had no lack; every man gathered as much as he should eat.
God commanding communism? Heresy to the likes of Falwell and Dobson.
Because the right wing christians strongly disapprove of the commands of Christ
The King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, (B)to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me
As Mathew described heaven:
Then the king will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.'
Heresy to the Right. God himself it seems is Unamerican. And gods reward for the right wing worship of greed?
Mathew 25:41 then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink,
And of course we have the continual calls of the far right for war and murder? The bible makes one thing clear. Murder is a sin. Thou Shalt not kill. Some right wing theologians have spun that to say thou shalt not murder. But let us judge by their own beliefs.
Pat Robertson on Chavez :You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war. And I don't think any oil shipments will stop.
Of course the very next day Robertson and his spokesmen denied he ever said it. But you cant really blame them, they are usually busy bearing false witness or say... defending pedophiles g" because "[w]e lived through Bill Clinton, and this situation with Foley is minuscule in comparison.". This from the right wings' general of god as it were.
And of course there is the concerted effort by christian zionists to bring on armageddon. Of course an actual reading of the bible will make it clear that it is the army of the antichrist who bring on the apocalypse. But their own holy book doesnt matter to these people, who cant seem to
hate their own god and dont realise that Jesus Christ born on the edge of africa was not white.
Of course there is more evidence out there of the heresy of these servants of satan. From "chritian warriors" and "battalions of god" to right wing religious leaders calling for the genocide of palestinians and the nuclear annihilation of the arab states. But what one wanders is.. how are these people not called upon their evil. And how has this army of darkness, the army of magog, managed to fulfill at least one biblical prophecy. That false prophets would rise and decieve a majority of christians into serving satan. Perhaps the christian zionists and the other "militias of god" are not so unsuccessful after all?
