Excerpt from Socialism of Christ: Or Attitude of Early Christians, Toward Modern Problems
Such being the desires of the people, Christ, when He first declared His views, and His cause when launched on the public, were interpreted in this interest, and expected to further these ends; so that to the common people in their misery Christ appeared as a Savior, to the ideal/ Republicans as a Deliverer, and to the mon archical Jews as a King; and to them all His new community, or republic, or kingdom seemed like a guaranty of their political ideals.
I propose, in this essay, to present the social and political aspects of Christ's teachings and of early Christianity, as drawn from the Gospels and from contemporaneous sources.
