Was Jesus a Socialist? (part 3)

In this episode of Truthspresso Express I chat about Jesus and socialism while driving to work.

A coworker recently made the claim to me that Jesus was a socialist. I have certainly heard this claim before, but I figured I would address it.

In part 3 I walk through the parable of the vineyard workers in Matthew chapter 20 that I have heard people claim teaches socialism. However, a closer look at the details shows that it teaches free market principles:

  1. private property
  2. profits
  3. enforcing voluntary contracts
  4. supply and demand
