The "SOCIALIST" Jesus is a counterfeit version of Jesus that believes that poverty is next to godliness. He believes the less you have, the more you’re blessed. In this message, we’re going to discover that this kind of thinking is rooted in Dualism and that the real Jesus never actually taught or believed this. So, what did the real Jesus actually teach when it came to earthly possessions and our relationship with our stuff? How you answer that question will reveal a lot about what you own and what really owns you.

2. The speaker read 1 Timothy 4:4 and applied it to how we should view our possessions.
How would you apply this verse in your life today?
3. As with the other Counterfeit Jesuses, people who follow the Socialist Jesus tend to emphasize a few key passages that affirm their beliefs. What is the danger in doing this?
4. If the number of possessions we have is not a trustworthy measure of God’s opinion of us, what is a trustworthy measure of His opinion?
5. Jesus challenged the rich young ruler to sell his possessions because that was the number one priority in his life. What is the number one priority in your life?
