While Jesus wasn't a Marxist, He was still vitally concerned in how the temple elite were destroying widows’ houses and defrauding the people. Did He intend for everybody to sell all their goods and give it to the poor, as in the case of the Rich Young Ruler? Or was this guy tied up in so much fraud he needed to start over again? Jerry Bowyer, author of "The Maker Versus the Takers: What Jesus Really Said About Social Justice and Economics," gives us a better view of what Christ thought about the corruption in His day, and our day.
