Jesus believed in sharing the wealth.

[Misty]

Americans do share their wealth with the united states government who in turn pays off it's cronies.

 

[Darkwind]

LOL. Not even midnight yet, and note the number of 'Conservatives' denying the message of Christ at the top of their voices.

Jesus said, "Take from Caesar and give to the needy"

??

Care to show Me those words in any Christian document?

 

[there4eyeM]

It is an interesting reaction that hypersensitive individuals associate the citation of Jesus' words with an attack on 'conservatism' and promoting 'communism'.

Would Jesus support Stalin? Not a serious question. Would Jesus support Hitler? The same. Would Jesus want the poor, sick and hungry fed? He would not have changed his mind.

 

[Katzndogz]

The purpose is that Jesus said to share what you have. When the government takes what you have it is sharing on your behalf and forcing people to be good Christians whether they want to or not.

JESUS BELIEVED IN SHARING THE WEALTH.
THE CHRISTIAN’S GOD.

I believe Obama is following the example of Jesus when he said feed the poor, Gleaning in he NT and Tithes. Every society in the human world believe in sharing the wealth. Jesus said to him, “If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor....He fed a multitude with 5 loaves and 2 fish and told them to give the surplus to the poor. He said pay your taxes. If that is not sharing the wealth, what is?
Plus GOD provided manna for the Jews in the wilderness. The Egyptians shared their store house of grain doing 7 lean year famine. The Christian bible teaches sharing the wealth.
As soon as Obama took office, sharing the wealth was communist and socialist and an evil thing as stealing and thief from those that have.
Mormon’s Bishop’s Storehouse it the largest example of sharing the wealth. After the U.S. Government.

PS.
Anytime the Government forces me to have a child that I cannot afford, they damn well be willing to take care of it.

There is a difference between private charity and individuals giving what they can to the needy and government redistribution of wealth (stealing)....

PS.

You can always give the unwanted child to a family that wants a child but are unable to have their own.

I would love to hear what you consider "enslaving and murdering". Are you saying taxation enslaves and murders people?

The systems Progs love and are trying to emulate in America, Socialism and Communism (Fascism too) all enslave and murder their own people, 100% of the time guaranteed

Simple enough for you?

Agreed. All leftist ideologies are pretty much the same. The differences are merely semantics. Collectivism demands that a few elite citizens serve as "the brain" for the collective, and without a foundation of individual freedom, its process is arbitrary, whatever feels good at the moment to the political class.

If it ever comes to that in the USA, my consolation is that this batch of Progs will be the first rounded up and destroyed. Because that's how it always works too.

 

[there4eyeM]

Jesus is only showing what a real chrisitan and a true follower of God should be like, we can see there are no real christians here.

Absolutely true! Who here says she/he is a Christian?

 

[GuyPinestra]

It seems that every couple of weeks we get a post like this that tries to equate Christianity and government, taxes and charity, giving and taking. It is always followed by atheist Progressives trying to tell us what Jesus would say or do. I'm always amused by them ascribing motives and actions to a Man they don't even believe in.

Salving your guilty conscience by forcibly taking from others to give to 'the poor' hasn't worked in the past, doesn't work now and won't work in the future. You want to help the poor? Get off your dead ass and help them. Nobody is stopping you. GIVE freely from YOUR pocket and you will reap Heavenly rewards.

"Using Jesus to defend Socialism and Communism is vile"

Talk about off topic and straw man! The OP addressed those who include themselves in the group of 'conservatives' and claim to be Christian. The debate is whether Jesus said what he said or not. It certainly is not that the OP encouraged a collective society.

But, after all, why would it be vile?

Typical scumbag, twist the Bible into your demented evil words.

Jesus told man to support his fellow man, not the Government take from others.

He also spoke of teaching a man to fish instead of just giving him free fish for the day.

Um, so where does making sure someone can work for their fish fall into your socialist lie, idiot?

Jesus would have Patton-slapped many Progs in this thread

Could the passage for this please be cited?

I agree, Obama needs to give HIS money to those in need, so should others if the choose to do so. Government should not steal from one and give to another.

I am very charitable and give to organizations I believe will help those in need, so they get the help they need. That is my choice. I feel government is not a good choice and shold not be forced to give by them.

He said, YOU should share your wealth (and even your mites). He never said GOVERNMENt should share your wealth.

And if the government forces you to have a child.....there are plenty (and I do mean plenty) of people who are looking to adopt infant newborns. If you can't afford it, give it up.

Oh shut the fuck up...

You can pretty much sum up the OP like this:

"Jesus was a socialist and anyone who doesn't believe it is not a true Christian."

It has been shown over and over that conservatives are more generous then liberals. What is disingenuous of this argument of yours is that the left usually hates Christians except to try and use what they hate as a bludgeon. Faker.

Furthermore, when at church and the donation plate is passed around - the church doesn't ask how much you make - they don't ask for a minimum donation - they don't ask for a percentage of your paycheck - people give what they can afford...

Since you are not a Christian, why are you so upset?
The post of mine you cite is not offensive or accusatory. I don't understand your vehemence.
