Título: Marx and Satan
Autor: Richard Wurmbrand
Sinopse: I wish to avenge myself against the One who rules above... The idea of God is the keynote of a perverted civilization. It must be destroyed. —Karl Marx He began life in a God-fearing family. It is documented that he was once a Christian. But a drastic change at some point in his life led Karl Marx to a deep personal rebellion against God and all Christian values. Eventually, he became Satan worshipper who regularly participated in occult practices and habits. By examining Marx's poetry, plays, correspondence, and biographical accounts, Richard Wurmbrand builds a convincing case for Marx's undeniably Satanic preference. Marx's own statements expose him as a hater of God, and therefore, a hater of God's creatures — those who have suffered under Marxism and communism. Wurmbrand, who was imprisoned for 14 years in Europe for his outspoken views against communism, urges Christians not to be duped by Marxism's benevolent disguise as a mere political or economic theory. He reveals the true roots of Marxist thinking so that Christians will recognize the evil therein and stand against it. About the Author Having been a prisoner of the Communist government in Romania, the Rev. Richard Wurmbrand has thoroughly researched this subject and seen its effects firsthand. He and his wife found Jesus to the Communist World to help Christians who suffer at the hands of communism and Marxism. Wurmbrand has over a dozen books in print here and in Europe, among them: Tortured for Christ, One Hundred Prison Meditations, Where Christ Suffers, and Answer to the Moscow Atheists.
