Not according to Austin Miles' book, Setting the Captives Free (page 229).

You're concerned about money? Isn't that a direct contradiction to the teachings of Jesus?
No. The idea you think professing Jesus equates holding to socialist political positions shows you are a shallow thinker when it comes to Christianity and the Bible. There is no call for socialism, as you suggest. Sure, the Christian is to help the poor, but lobbying for the poor to be harmed by rich liberal elites is not a command of Jesus Christ.
The idea we should favor government exploitation of people, as you suggest, is disgusting, as is your post.
