That Jesus (if he existed) was a brown/black skinned man that descended from the tribe of Judah. He was also a refugee that preached socialist ideals, hung out with the sinners, the poor, and the sick on a daily basis, and showed nothing but unfaltered love and kindness. Even to those that indulged in sin, he let them use the free will the bible speaks of, and never forced or mandated they believe and practice what he taught.
That's all. Merry Christmas, fellow stackers.

So wrong, so wrong...
Jesus offers his Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard. In it, a landowner hires some laborers to pick grapes. Near the end of the day, he realizes he needs more workers to get the job done. To recruit them, he agrees to pay a full day’s wage for just one hour of work. When one of the laborers who had worked an entire day complains, the landowner answers, “I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t you agree to work for a denarius? Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money?” That’s a testament to the principles of supply and demand, of private property, and of voluntary contracts, not socialism.

What about the parts of the bible where he healed the sick, fed the poor at no cost, ect? Stop trying to Americanize Jesus. He was a middle eastern man that preached heavily against those hoarding wealth as well.

Jesus’s Parable of the Talents (talents were a form of money in Jesus’s day): A man entrusted three of his workers with his wealth. The two who invested the money and made a profit were praised and the one who buried his share so he wouldn’t lose any of it was reprimanded.
You don't understand the parts about hoarding wealth, sorry...

Bro... do you... like... need a hug or something?
reply
Why do you assume I need a hug for spreading what the Bible says? You're acting like I'm angry or something and I'm not. I'm simply reminding people what the Bible told us about Jesus and the way he lived his time here on earth. Did what I said make you upset so you assumed I'm upset? Are you the one that can't accept that Jesus wasn't a rich white man carrying a semi assault rifle shooting gays?
reply
hugs cautiously Merry Christmas bro
