Ark Encounter Hits New Record Attendance

Was Jesus a Marxist?

Jesus associated with the marginalized, validated women’s dignity, and ministered to earthly needs as part of his wider purpose to meet spiritual needs. He opposed religious rulers who hypocritically prioritized human ideas above God’s Word at the expense of God’s image bearers. Jesus counseled the rich young ruler to sell everything and give to the poor. He commands us to serve “the least of these” in his name. And (praise God!) Jesus identified himself as the Anointed One—the Messiah—of Isaiah 61.

But does all this mean our Savior endorsed an early form of socialism or neo-Marxism?

Answers for Pastors & Leaders

In Genesis 6, we read about the wickedness of mankind—it was so bad that “every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually” (Genesis 6:5). And yet, in all the wickedness of Noah’s day, “Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD” (Genesis 6:8).

Noah found favor because he was faithful and obedient, despite the culture of the day. And God asks the same of us; will we remain faithful, holding onto truth, contending for the faith until Jesus comes again or we’re called home?

Discover practical answers for you and your congregation to help you stand with faithfulness and obedience, no matter the temptation to compromise, stay silent, or reject God’s truth at our 2025 Answers for Pastors and Leaders conference at the Ark Encounter.

How Many Animals Did Adam Name?

Adam named only “birds,” “cattle,” and “beasts of the field”—probably only animals closely associated with man and not “beasts of the earth” or “creeping things.”
