What “inspired” writings do Jesuits use as a spiritual compass? Is there a book of Jesuit?

If the Jesuits would study the Holy Bible then they would know Jesus’ teaching of Matthew 20:1-15, particularly verse 15. That passage teaches that a person has the right to do what they want with their own money.

Acts 5:4 indicates basically the same thing about ownership and money.

Maybe these passages are a reason why communists reject Christianity.

Insights welcome.

"That's Rome, and not even the whole of Rome, it's false—those are the
worst of the Catholics, the Inquisitors, the Jesuits!... And there could not be
such a fantastic creature as your Inquisitor. What are these sins of mankind
they take on themselves? Who are these keepers of the mystery who have
taken some curse upon themselves [pg 287] for the happiness of mankind?
When have they been seen? We know the Jesuits, they are spoken ill of, but
surely they are not what you describe? They are not that at all, not at all....
They are simply the Romish army for the earthly sovereignty of the world
in the future, with the Pontiff of Rome for Emperor ... that's their ideal, but
there's no sort of mystery or lofty melancholy about it.... It's simple lust of power,
of filthy earthly gain, of domination—something like a universal
serfdom with them as masters—that's all they stand for."
