As a teen, Karl Marx (ethnically Jewish but raised a Christian) wrote this:
Union with Christ could give an inner elevation, comfort in sorrow, calm trust, and a heart susceptible to human love, to everything noble and great, not for the sake of ambition and glory, but only for the sake of Christ."
◇
Several years later, as a young man, Marx wrote poetry re: satan:
Thus, we know that Marx knew Scripture well. However, soon after high school, Karl began an abrupt shift toward the adversary, Satan. Again, this time in a poem, Marx writes,
"I wish to avenge myself against the One who rules above".
This statement is quite consistent with a Satanist, who believes in God, Who rules above, but who has made a personal decision to side with Satan against God.
One of the key understanding of Satan is that he hates all mankind, and wishes them dead and in hell with him, simply and only because all human beings are made in the "image of God" (Genesis 1:26). Satan wishes eternal damnation for every human being God has ever created, even those people who serve him. Now listen to Marx:
"...Yet I have power within my youthful arms
To clench and crush you (i.e., personified humanity)
with tempestuous force,
While for us both the abyss yawns in darkness.
You will sink down and I shall follow laughing,
Whispering in your ears 'Descend,
come with me, friend'".
This is the attitude, the voice, of Satan. Marx knows his choice will send him to Hell for eternity and he wants to carry as many people with him as possible; and, Marx knew he was headed for Hell, as his next poem shows so very well:
"Thus Heaven I've forfeited,
I know it full well,
My soul, once true to God,
Is chosen for hell."
I cannot imagine a more terrible personal conclusion, that Marx knew, and accepted, the knowledge that he had made a lifelong choice for Satan and Hell. Reverend Wurmbrand shows many instances in which Marx possessed great hatred for all mankind and wanted nothing more than to destroy it and to enjoy that destruction. Because our space is so limited, we will quote just one representative sample:
"With disdain I will throw my gauntlet
Full in the face of the world,
And see the collapse of this pygmy giant
Whose fall will not stifle my ardour.
Then will I wander godlike and victorious
Through the ruins of the world
And, giving my words an active force,
I will feel equal to the Creator."
Again, we see the two Satanic characteristics of desiring to destroy all mankind and to become God or godlike.
Then Reverend Wurmbrand states his belief that Marx was actually possessed of demons, as he quotes Engel's written statement that Marx was a "monster possessed by 10,000 devils". This certainly explains Marx's many evil statements and the evil fruits of Communism so amply displayed before the world. Wurmbrand then proceeds to document the many instances in which 20th Century Communist leaders have either practiced aspects of Satanism or have actually worshipped Satan. He succinctly states his conclusion, "Communism is collective demon-possession".
