The Christian testimony of Karl Marx?

Ever thought you'd see the Christian testimony of Karl Marx?

That's just one of the shocking revelations in "Marx & Satan," a classic book by Richard Wurmbrand now available – and in the No. 1 position among best-sellers this week – at the newly redesigned WND Superstore.

Wurmbrand was the heroic pastor and evangelist imprisoned and tortured repeatedly by a Communist regime. He explored extensively the roots of Marx' beliefs, and found that his first book was called "The Union of the Faithful with Christ."

In it, Marx wrote, "Through love of Christ we turn our hearts at the same time toward our fellow brethren who are inwardly bound to us and for whom He gave Himself as sacrifice…"

So what changed Marx into the inventor of one of the worst tools of oppression to Christianity?

The turning point, according to Wurmbrand, was the university education Marx obtained, where he was taught a new "Christian doctrine" called "liberal theology."

Wurmbrand exposes how Marx learned to hate God and Christians, and eventually joined a satanic cult of his closest comrades.

Why was Marx bent on the destruction of mankind? "We will never know for sure, but we do know what he wrote … 'I wander godlike and victorious Through the ruins of the world, And giving my words an active force, I will feel equal to my Creator,'" the book explains.

It was in 1966 when Wurmbrand testified before the U.S. Senate on the torture of Christians and stripped to the waist to reveal 18 deep torture wounds on his body.

"This is a book that deserves to be in the library of every truly informed and freedom-loving person in the world," said Joseph Farah, founder of WND Books. "But, more importantly, it needs to be read."

In second place is "The Hebrew Yeshua vs. the Greek Jesus" by Nehemia Gordon.

The book reveals the realization in the Christian world that "Jesus Christ" was not a blond, blue-eyed Gentile.

"Yeshua of Nazareth was raised in an observant Jewish family in a culture where the Torah (five books of Moses) was the National Constitution. Yeshua's teachings, which supposedly form the basis for Western Christianity, are now filtered through 2,000 years of traditions born in ignorance of the land, language, and culture of the Bible," the book descrdibes.

"The issues over which Yeshua wrestled with the Pharisees are simply not understood by modern Christians; nor are his most important instructions followed by those who claim to be his disciples."

Gordon is a Dead Sea Scrolls scholar who has explored the ancient Hebrew text of the Gospel of Matthew from manuscripts long hidden in the archives of Jewish scribes.

In third place is "Against All Odds – Israel Survives: The complete first season, a DVD including the complete 13-part cable network series that asks whether Israel is a place of miracles.

The series explains that it doesn't seem logical that Israel has triumphed through four major wars and survived relentless terrorist attacks.

Even cynics will be challenged by this journey through Israel's turbulent history. Stories included outline how Israeli troops in the Yom Kippur War are saved when a mysterious wind exposes thousands of mines that imperil their lives, how an outnumbered Israeli squad is saved when approaching enemy troops inexplicably flee and the time that strange beings with flaming swords foil marauding Arabs trying to destroy a Jewish community.
