I don't think so.

The mistake liberal Christians make is to confuse Jesus's concern with the poor, the downtrodden, etc. with a government-mandated social welfare program that other people are forced to support through taxation -- i.e. the Democrats' position and program.

Jesus always made it personal and individual. The Samaritan, for example, was praised because he personally came to the aid of the traveler who had been robbed and beaten, and this Samaritan personally paid for the treatment and upkeep of this harmed man. The Samaritan did NOT call for or try to institute a government program to aid robbed and beaten travelers.

So claiming that Jesus was an advocate for present day socialistic government and governmental programs is a gross misrepresentation of the teaching and ministry of Jesus.


Well said, LE.


Cheers, Dave.
