Money lenders? In my temple? It’s more likely than you think!
U sure about the hammer and sickle??
Yeahhhh a plain red flag or the lib-soc red and black would probably fit better. Jesus doesn’t seem like he was the statist type.
Render unto Caesar?
Or maybe he was, but the ghost writers of the Bible got the vibe wrong. It is also possible that Aliens were involved, but that historical docu-series won’t air until later tonight.
The idea that folks like the Council of Rome would err away from authoritarianism seems… unlikely.
After lengthy consideration, we’ve decided to defederate from jesusofnazare.th
lol
Black/Red is better
I didn’t make the image, just sharing the good news
what’s wrong about the hammer and sickle?
Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you! Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days. Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter. You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.
Don’t let this distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.
“WHEN THEY PASS THE PLATE NEXT TIME, YOU PUT SOMETHING IN”
In the name of Hammer, the Sun, and the Holy Sickle. It’s also kind of a cross.
A black communist Jesus?! This is so accurate
Not black. Given the time and place most experts would say Jesus was brown or olive skinned.
Jesus was a radical that the authorities were so worried about they had him killed.
When a man asked Jesus what he had to do to get eternal life, after running through the normal commandments (don’t murder, don’t steal, etc) the guy said he did all those things, and then Jesus replied:
"One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” (Mark 10:21)
The guy was disappointed and left. Then Jesus said,
“it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God” (Matthew 19:24)
In James he said:
“Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.” (James 2:15-16)
Jesus tells a parable in Luke where a rich man in hell sees a poor guy in heaven and is begging for just a tiny taste of water: Luke 16:19-31
In Acts the early church is described as sharing possessions communally:
"All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need. (Acts 4:32-35)
None of this is an endorsement of Christianity, I’m an atheist, but was raised religious.
This is amazing!
More like a SocDem…
