Christ Alone Changes the Heart
By Editor
A Socialist paper comes to us containing an article on "Christ's Second Coming" in which the binding of Satan is said to be accomplished by the utter abolition of the profit system. By the abolition of that system "old Beelzebub will be bound so fast he will be powerless to influence mankind to commit the sins that now endanger the human race and prevent mankind from inheriting eternal life." If greed were the only passion or sin of humanity, the only manifestation of selfishness, there might be amelioration in the abolition of the profit system; but sin and selfishness are ubiquitous, and their manifestations legion, their forms protean. No human law can change the human heart or take from man his innate selfishness. Only Christ can do this.
