According to Marx, the only way to achieve "true" communism is through revolution of the lower classes.
Marx's teaching (more like rants) were all very time and location specific, can easily be taken out of context and dont hold up to the test of time. The basic principles are more long lived. He wanted the "revolution" in france, but found a more receptive audience in russia.
