  What did I get wrong? Where did Jesus advocate for forced redistribution by government?

    Jesus literally said to pay your taxes. What is a tax other that forced redistribution?

      Yes but did he say paying your taxes will remove the obligation to take care of your neighbor?

      I’m kinda missing the verse where he said “Give Caesar what is Caesar’s, and let him take care of the poor.”

        So Caeser can take the money and kill Christians with it instead? I’m not sure you’re making the point you think you’re making.
