I came across a conversation on social media the other day that I had seen several times before. I usually ignore it.
Christ gets brought into an argument that a Progressive is losing, usually when the Progressive starts claiming that Jesus was a Socialist.
Jesus was not a Socialist. He never practiced nor did he preach Socialism. He would have found the involuntary taking of wages from one who had earned them to give to another who had not, quite abhorrent.
Jesus practiced and preached selflessness. And charity. Giving of oneself and of one's treasures voluntarily. Because it is right and good.
Big difference. Jesus practiced and preached selflessness until his final breath.
"Forgive them, Father, they know not what they do"
Details. Words. Meanings.
Peace.
