I canceled my subscription to the Bruderhoff’s Plough Publishing when the magazine articles started going in the direction of Christian Communism.
Freedom is essential for souls to grow.
“As one of our own contributors wrote, back in 2017, our educators have been glamorizing Communism for years...”

Pop quiz: Which was the most compliant demographic?
Some of them are STILL wearing masks on the street and alone in their cars.
Educators have been glamorizing Communism for years it’s why there democrats.
I agree with you wholeheartedly.
2 Thessalonians 3:10 - For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.
Doesn’t sound very “socialist” to me.
