Synopsis

Economist and historian Lawrence W. Reed addresses the persistent claim that Jesus was a socialist. He systematically refutes the idea that Jesus advocated for wealth redistribution, central economic planning, or a welfare state. Reed examines the New Testament to demonstrate that nothing within it supports the contentions of modern socialists and progressives. This timely book challenges contemporary views on socialism and its perceived alignment with Christian teachings.
