Jesus LOVED capitalism

"It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." Matthew 19:24


"No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other.  You cannot serve God and mammon. 25 "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more  value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his span of life? 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin; 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O  men of little  faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, `What shall we eat?' or `What shall we drink?' or `What shall we wear?' 32 For the Gentiles seek all these things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well. 34 "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day's own trouble be sufficient for the day." Matthew 6:24-34 (Luke 12:24-27)

How come conservatives leaders don't remember these Bible verses when making/presenting policy bills/amendments?

They're just religious/spiritual a la lip-service...pathetic and damming if they were to read these verses...They only live for themselves.

@DonKhoi Can't think of anything else but the same old worn-out phrase-Liberal Welfare State. Do you ever broaden your beer soaked mind long enough for a fresh, breeze of thought? Do you ever contemplate why we have a welfare state?  Do others exist outside of your cohort? Have you ever been to the city? Have you ever been outside of Bumbfuck? Give thoughtfulness a chance. Yes, YOUR brain may swell and your ears will bleed, but it passes. In the end, you may become a sentient humanbeing.

Jesus was a SAVIOR! Jesus is a SAVIOR!

Jesus may was a communist but Communists never liked Jesus

"So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. And He would not allow anyone to carry wares through the temple." Mark 11:15~ THIS WAS THE ACT THAT GOT JESUS KILLED. He called the ball. He called the money changers out on the corrupt exchange rate & the way that the whole Temple Complex had become corrupt... SO THEY KILLED HIM !!!

I attack Christians in debates because I had to suffer from their verbal attacks on a daily basis when I went to Christian schools. Christians have no basis to judge others. They have done everything the worse dictators of the 20th century have done. Genocide--the Albigensian Crusade, rape---Roman Catholic priests, torture and spying--the Inquisition,Orwellian doublespeak--privilege, the death penalty, support for wars. Face it---Christianity is just a profit making venture.

@perdondaris Serriously man, what the hell? Im dont know you from atom but why do you attack all Christians like that? Its just not right man, not right at all.

[twincrier]

I notice people who use the bible to criticize those who they categorize as "wealthy" are perfectly okay stealing and coveting that wealth when it serves them. I believe Christ had much to say about those sins as well.

Know this the journey you have begun has brought me to you all! I hope you are ready for the fight I have come to revieal to you. It seems you have been in practice a while! You are of no fear. I love it! Lets direct it in a way that makes VERY BIG WAVES! Such as Youtube can not contain! You are the 2012 Saul my friend and Saul in reality in the end was a BAD ASS! -Yakman

[YakmanBuddha]

These scriptures you have rightly realized but misinturrpreted! Jesus was much like you rageing against the lies! Your on to something but... Lets dig deeper. There is something to fight! But its not religion. Its thoes who have selected that part of scripture they wanted to share and hidden the rest in order to gain power. See my channel as in the days to come I will pull the curtian off the illusion completely! Forgive spelling error Still practicing!

Jesus didn't love something that didn't exist at the time retards. He was a Commie, a pure hearted Commie wanting his people to be free. Go some where else Fascist ass holes

[perdondaris]

I wouldn't want to do something that would get me executed by the state for no good reason. That is what Jesus did. After he died nothing in the world changed. He just became a mascot for powerful warlords who did everything powerful warlords did before he lived and died. Jesus might have changed his mind up on the cross if he had the foreknowledge of the pointlessness of his sacrifice.
