Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.” - John 18:36

"That is because Jesus did not come to influence the government, but the people who needed salvation. He wanted men to believe in Him not some social agenda that would get the government to do what Christians were called to do."

Socialism is a political idea. Jesus was apolitical. Jesus didn't advocate any earth-bound political theory as a solution to anything.

Jesus did not concern himself with politics though the politics of men were concerned about Jesus.

Jesus offered salvation not "Utopia" on earth.
