S3E5: Is Jesus a Politic?

S3E5: Is Jesus a Politic?

Question of the Show: Discussing Jesus and if he fits any political party.

A favorite refrain in left wing Christian writing is the idea that Jesus is a politic. That taken as a whole, Jesus leads us to a rather specific direction or policy because the values he expresses must lead us to these conclusions if we are honest. Of course, prosperity gospel preachers and MAGA and any other Christian is also sure that their specific policy is supported by Jesus. There are clearly commands in the Bible, but we’re not Jews so we already ignore some, and there’s many books written on the context of these commands. Is Jesus actually on the side of one party or another?
