Was Jesus a socialist?This question has been debated for years, and today we take a clear, thoughtful look at what the Bible actually says about generosity, personal responsibility, compassion, and economic life.
In this episode of The Gold Standard with Weston Gold, we explore:
• What Jesus taught about caring for the poor• The difference between voluntary generosity vs. forced redistribution• Biblical examples of stewardship, work ethic, and personal ownership• How the early church modeled compassion without coercion• Why Jesus’ message transcends modern political categories
This is a positive, respectful conversation rooted in Scripture, history, and common sense — not partisan talking points. Whether you’re a person of faith, a student of history, or just curious about how ancient teachings intersect with modern questions, this episode will give you a grounded perspective and plenty to think about.
