Was Jesus a socialist
Christ came to preach against socialism.
It was one of the major reasons He took the kingdom from the Pharisees and appointed it to the Apostles. The Corban of the Pharisees which made the word of God to none effect was a socialist scheme started by Herod the Great in Judea. Herod's temple like the Temples of Rome operated a social welfare system of free bread through taxation.
The same scheme was promoted by Augustus in Rome years before and by FDR in the United States. I am amazed at the number of so called Christian pastors who do not know or understand that Jesus said His followers were not to go that socialist way.
Christians were actually put to death because they would not sign up for the socialist welfare programs of Rome and their free Bread and circuses. The socialist schemes of the Roman government were at the heart of the Christian conflict.
This is all because we ave chosen to go the socialist way of central treasuries like the Golden calf and having One purse to secure benefits through covetousness. It is the way of Balaam and the Nicolaitan which God hates.
Christ told us to go another way if we were to follow Him. John the Baptist had done the same with his water Baptism.
Christians should not be a part of such programs rooted in covetousness. You cannot oppose what Christ said and at the same time be a follower of Christ.
Many of the people who think they are Christians but are only Modern Christians are actually workers of iniquity. They are worried about the Mark of the Beast and the number of the Beast 666. Modern Christians are often worried about National ID today. They have national ID. Their state IDs are linked nationally and you cannot get a state ID, Drivers license, business license, marriage license without a Social Security Number by law. You cannot get a job in the civil sector, a bank account, or license of any kind without the Mark of the Beast. Most all nations have linked their own SSN type number by international treaty.
Modern Christians through Covetous Practices have made themselves Merchandise and cursed their Children with endless debt and servitude to the very systems and its Benefactors they have applied to for benefits. They have no idea of what they have already done. If they have ears to hear, the time to repent is now.
Many practice a False religion to make them feel comfortable about their Public religion either because no one has told them what Pure Religion really means or because they refuse to Repent.
We need to begin to attend to what Christ called the Weightier matters.
- Luke 22:25 "And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. But ye shall not be so:"
