Welcome to Apologetics with Carl Kerby!
Today, we’re talking about the enemy’s strategies.
California’s recently adopted Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum (ESMC) is an example of public schools promoting Marxism — a dangerous philosophy that labels everyone as either the “oppressor” or the “oppressed.”
Think that’s a stretch?
Vera Hartford, a California lawyer and opponent of ESMC, is a former political refugee from communist Czechoslovakia. As someone who suffered under Marxism, Hartford said, “For those of us that grew up in Soviet bloc countries, the ESMC is like déjà vu. We are dumbfounded by a curriculum that consistently elevates Socialism, Marxism, and Communism as the way students are encouraged to become socially responsible.”
Truth is, when God is rejected, a godless ideology will take its place.
And only the biblical worldview provides real answers to the societal problems of today. We must encourage our youth to seek Christ as the threat from Marxism grows.
And what are other ways the enemy deceives? We’ll discuss them another time.
