When assessing so-called communist regimes, there's an important caveat. Do they worship idols? After all, God determines who's in government and who's out at any given moment and those who despise His choice are in for a rough deal. How do we know this? He said so.

II Peter 2:9-10 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: but chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

How do we know any government operates with God's recognition?

Daniel 2:20-21 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: and he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding

How would anyone know if a ruler lost God's endorsement?

Acts 12:21-23 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them. And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man. And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.

Something would happen. Bearing this in mind, how would you assess North Korea, Laos, Cuba, China & Vietnam?
