The Jesus Movement

The Jesus Movement was the ongoing community of people who center their lives on an image of Jesus. Followers imagine claim that they are in a loving, liberating and life-giving relationship with God, each other, and creation.


The Jesus movement imagined they were a part of a restorationist of a theology that was in sink with and a return to the original life of the early Christians.

The Jesus people often viewed churches, especially those in the United States, as apostate, and took a decidedly countercultural political stance in general.


The Jesus movement was a further movement away from the simple doctrine of Jesus into emotionalism and imagination where people worshipped the creation of the latter by the employment of the former.

Some believed in the New Testament, Jesus identifies himself with the hungry, the poor, the sick, and the prisoners(Matthew 25:31–46) but used it to suggest Jesus was a socialist and that socialism was a major component of Christianity.

Both John the Baptist and Jesus and that socialism]] expressed clear doctrines which were fundamentally opposed the socialism because it required the force of an exercising authority as the covetous practices of legal charity of the welfare State.

Even the 1992 Catechism of the Catholic Church, promoted by Pope John Paul II, condemns socialism as an atheistic ideology.[1]

Pastor Greg Laurie stated on June 21, 1971. “We didn't call it a revolution.” He saw it as a sudden surge in young people adopting what they wanted to believe was the "Christian faith" in the '70s, first in California, then across the U.S. and around the world. “TIME magazine coined that phrase. We called it 'The Jesus Movement.


The earlier origin of the movement likely began in 1913 with R.E. McAlister. They seemed to follow the formula for baptism found in the Acts of the Apostles (2:38) rather than that in the Gospel According to Matthew which taught that water baptism in the early church was done differently.

These differences distracted people from those clear moral doctrines of John the Baptist, Jesus and the warnings of the apostles.

Baptism got early Christians the Corban of Herod and the Pharisees that was making the word of God to none effect. Their Corban was a form of socialism like the free bread of the Imperial Cult of Rome and eventually the alimenta of the Caesars run through the government temples.

Those systems of social welfare through the state were all forms of Legal charity which are systems operating as covetous practices through men who call themselves Benefactors but exercise authority one over the other.

The early Church operated by fervent charity through the perfect law of liberty in hope of a social safety net being formed by faithful followers of Christ.

They set a table of love through the Corbam of Christ.

As the earliest Jesus movement they what not eat of the tables provided by rulers because they knewthat they were a snare and a trap.

All forms of public religion by their nature degenerate the social bonds of a free society.

The Jesus Movement would not have been so popular had the modern Church not already abandoned the practice of Pure Religion and a daily ministration according to the doctrine of Jesus.
