Is Socialism/Communism “Christian”? (Part 1)

Nov 9, 2025    Dan Fisher

Pastor Dan Fisher discusses the relationship between socialism/communism and Christianity, exploring historical contexts, theological implications, and the responsibilities of the church in political engagement. Beware of the term “Democratic Socialist.” The Bolsheviks, led by Lenin, were a radical faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party that executed millions during their regime. Stalin's purges resulted in the deaths of many more millions, highlighting the violent history associated with communism. ​It is urged for Christians to be informed about what the Bible says about government and what is happening around them.
