      Just since you seem to be misunderstanding. It never says that you have to be poor just that if your family is covered you should donate to those less fortunate and prop up your community. Jesus was all about social safety nets and fair distribution of wealth. It’s why the Pharacies had him killed. He was a socialist

        Socialism didn’t even exist as a concept. Jesus said give to Caesar what is Caesar’s. Go back to hexbear and tell your mom you need more HotPockets.

          You are so misinformed it hurts. Like maybe you should read a few of my comments from my comment history before assigning me a completely random political view that I don’t hold? I’ve had a chance to look over your comments now and brother take a break go and touch grass. You post three times as many comments as I do and we’ve both been here for ten months.

          render unto Ceasar what is Caesar’s means follow the laws of your local government AKA pay your taxes so I have no idea where the fuck you were going with that…

          If you want to debate scripture with me feel free to reply. Though you may want to do some re reading of Acts first.

          Sincerely someone who actually read the Bible and was brought up in a church driven community.

          All the believers were together and shared everything. They would sell their land and the things they owned and then divide the money and give it to anyone who needed it. The believers met together in the Temple every day. Acts 2: 44 to 46
