Ya I’ve heard the Christ -communist stuff before.

He favored a 10% flat tax IIRC.

Promoted a Monarchy, as well.

Expected more from those who had more, but never codified it, other than to imply that love of material possesions might create an obstacle in seeking his Father.

He loved the poor and crippled and dispossessed and rejected the legalists and the phony religious leaders.

He showed a better way, not so suited for the present; or was it? He was a pacifist ( think Quakers), whereas most of us are prepared for warfare.

He could have ushered His Kingdom in with his power but He prefer to draw us to Glory in a counterintuitive way...

Suitable answer:

Isaiah 45:9 KJV
King James Version

Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker ! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
