Socialism is incompatible with God-created human nature, God-given natural rights and the Biblical concept of justice.Christianity believes that the Bible encourages a system of private property and individual responsibilities and initiative (Is.65:21-22;Jer.32:43-44; Acts 5:1-4;Eph. 4:28).

Actually. Socialism is not compatible with “fallen” Human Nature.

Heaven as it is often described is actually very much the socialist utopia. But Heaven works because it’s is ruled by an all powerful, all knowing, and all just God. Socialism on earth doesn’t work because it’s ruled by fallen humans who are neither just nor wise. When you try to create heaven without God you end up with hell. Which is what socialism on earth always degenerates into.

Capitalism is not some great system either, it simply works because it assumes the fallen nature of man and accounts for it.
