I think he made it pretty clear that He doesn't endorse cruelty when he gave His speeches instructing everyone to love their enemies, do good for others, etc.

He was poor and a carpenter. He was a Jew in a place that was ruled by the Romans. He didnt own slaves lol.

Except for the verses that bring those statements into question. Though I suppose part of the problem is Paul had different ideas on how christianity should be taught than the early christians did. It makes Jesus come off as a bit scatterbrained. This is also a guy that told people they would go to hell for having too good a life on earth.
