In this episode of Truthspresso I chat about Jesus and socialism.
A coworker a while ago made the claim to me that Jesus was a socialist. I have certainly heard this claim before, but I figured I would address it.
In part 10 we look at the parable of the unjust steward. A "Christian socialist" claims that this parable proves that Jesus favors defrauding wealthy people to give to the poor. While this parable and Jesus' application can be hard to understand at first, closer study reveals that Jesus wants us to be good stewards of money unlike His worldly examples--including both the merchant and his unjust steward.
