For all their “christianity”, republicans in the US are pretty hypocritical.
Jesus actually teached that everybody deserves to get fed and housed. That everybody deserves healthcare. That people should care for other people in their community. That is essentially the core principles of socialism.
I’m no longer a Christian but when people tried to get jesus to weigh in on hot button political issues of his day (probably to entrap him into saying something that would piss off either the zealots or the romans) he told them “render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s; render unto god what is God’s”. The meaning, I take it, is that he was there with a spiritual message, not a political one
I think part of that sentiment is also I’m not a threat to the government please don’t kill me
He was not scared in any way whatsoever about any earth government, so that meek “pwease don’t kill me” bit is totally an unnecessary lie.
Case in point, when they came to arrest him, he actively encouraged his disciples to NOT fight, reminding them that any army from earth sent against him was a rounding number against the whole disproportionate force he and his father by extension had available (Matthew 26:47, 52, 53)
For reference and perspective, that’s like 100 dudes sent to arrest him vs an army of 72k Angels, which is mentioned before that only one angel was able to obliterate an army of 185k dudes in one night , so at his command he had an army which could have easily wiped twice the current world population in one night
So he wasn’t scared at all during his stay on earth, at least not of a measley mob force
