He treated the sick for free and fed the masses for free and turned water into wine at a wedding .
Why do Christians oppose the teachings of Jesus to give up their worldly possessions and help their fellow man .

He also got angry about unjustified and unfair taxes being imposed on the people.

The Right Wing resembles the Pharisees more than anything, because they're promoting a "Godly nation," they condemn certain types of behavior, and they strap on a bunch of extra rules for following God.
And if their churches actually took care of business as they should, then such social programs wouldn't be necessary.
Not all Christians are Right Wingers, though.

Get rich quick schemes in the capitalist business world, (buyouts, IPOs, conglomerates, acquisitions, mergers, and the stock market), do not actually work. Remaining solvent does not actually exist within false economics capitalism.
Profit existing in the capitalist business world, or millionaires existing within capitalism, is pathological deception committed by the 21 organizations spying on the population with plain clothes agents, (with covert fake names and fake backgrounds).
Actual economics is the persons paying the monthly business loan payments of companies voting at work in order to control the property they are paying for.
Capitalism is the psychology of imaginary parents, false economics, and the criminal deception of employees that are paying the bills (including the stocks and bonds, or shares) of companies.
Anti-democracy republicanism is the psychology of imaginary parents, and false government.

What has happened to our society?
I embrace these principles and values of Jesus Christ. I think of harmony, unity, cooperation, etc.
You may go a bit far here but I certainly believe in giving a helping hand but better yet to have a country where one isn't needed. I work and go to school. I also volunteer and donate to charities. I'm struggling. I'm doing the right things and it isn't enough. What then?

I believe Jesus was a left leaning person, but not a politician per se.

So now all of you are going to speak for Jesus and what you think he was politically? Right! As if Jesus would approve of women murdering their unborn babies and calling it a "choice" or taxing mothers and fathers in order to pay out more money to women having more kids out of wedlock.

Only according to republicans. Apparently all democrats (or is it liberals, I can't keep all the accusations straight anymore!) are socialists, & this is a bad thing??

No. Jesus was a preacher and STILL is a preacher through our hearts. How did Jesus turn water into wine? He didn't. God did it. As long as you put your faith in God you can do anything. God was not sent down to be a socialist, he was sent down to preach the word and take away all the sin in the world. Thats why he died for us.

I must of missed the part where Jesus forced others (under the threat of death or imprisonment) to care for the sick and feed the masses. He taught that individuals should want to help others, not be forced to by the government or community. Socialism eliminates choice in the matter, and the choosing to help is what Jesus advocated. Jesus wasn't even close to a socialist.
