@bl4ckkn1g8t5 "Cite your proof of your claims"
Okay, let's go through one by one. Shall we?
"Jesus was a Brown skinned"
True. Jesus was not only a Jew, but Jews back then were very dark skinned.
"Leftist"
"Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me" (Matthew 19:21.)
There are lots of verses to back up these claims, and I know them all. I'll be happy to provide more, if you think I'm cherry picking.
"Radical"
Let's define that first. (If you don't like the definition, and want to use another, I'll find you verses that fit it.)
Radical: "advocating or based on thorough or complete political or social change." (From the Oxford dictionary.)
Not only did Jesus want you to sell what you have and give your capitalist money to the poor, he wanted you to "“Put away your sword,” Jesus told him. “Those who use the sword will die by the sword"" (Matthew 26:52.)
So an end to violence and war.
He wanted us to "love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked" (Luke 6:35); “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them" (Luke 6:27-29.)
So an end to hatred of everyone, even (or especially) of those who hate you. It was this love of everyone and everything that he said made you one of his followers:
"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another" (John 13:34-35.)
Let's review: no more money, no more war, no more hate; love everything and everyone. Sounds pretty radical to me.
