It's a simple question . Based upon what we know from the three synoptic Gospels and the Gospel of John and other hypothetical sources. What label would you put the man under?

Jesus was a socialist of the highest order. He was also a long haired hippy peace freak who would condemn the religious right and conservatives/republicans. He also hung out with 12 guys, so he may have been gay.

As Jacob had 12 sons and one daughter name of Dinah, Jesus had 12 male disciples and one female disciple name of Mary.

Jesus was apolitical. "My kingdom is not of this world."

Most likely conservative. If we are to believe the bible He did things for others out of his own pocket, not expecting the government to suppky armies of social workers to help out.

Give unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things which are God's.

He would most certainly have been non-partisan.

Judging by the hair alone, I'd say he was definitely a leftie. :smile:

This is the kingdom he came from.

2Co:12:2:
I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago,
(whether in the body,
I cannot tell;
or whether out of the body,
I cannot tell: God knoweth;)
such an one caught up to the third heaven.

In my view he was likely very socialistic. His ministry was the poor the downtrodden
He was not opposed to drinking either but again being a glutton or a drunkard.
He believed the people should look after each other and that we are our brothers
keeping. He also believed people should pay their share of taxes
Give unto Caesar well you know the rest.
He was not materialistic either and he frowned on finance companies with the Temple
act driving money lenders out.
I was not A political he made reference after reference to left wing policy of the day.
At the time remember Rome was more fascist than anything meaning a conservative
government of the day as imperialist governments are and to be in opposition to Rome
would make you left of center

That is not what is mean't. Caesar does not own your heart and soul so don't give them to Caesar, just Caesar's coins which are valueless in comparison to your heart and soul.
