{New Discourses | 03 January 2025}
In this compelling excerpt from the "EVILution of Communism" workshop [see this thread - OB], James Lindsay responds to a pastor's insightful question about Marxism as a Christian heresy. Lindsay traces the ideological lineage from Hegel’s theosophical interpretations to Marx’s inversion of Christian virtues, characterizing Marxism as a distortion of biblical anthropology and ethics. He challenges pastors to cultivate discernment in their congregations, emphasizing the dual call for wisdom and gentleness as outlined in Matthew 10:16. Lindsay highlights the importance of confronting evil with firm conviction, while also fostering true Christian compassion that restores and redeems. This dialogue offers profound insights for anyone grappling with the intersection of faith, culture, and ideology.
