I think he also said some shit about his kingdom not being a worldly kingdom, and we should not lay our treasures where moth and dust corrupt, that Christians should not involve themselves in worldly affairs but rather make themselves spiritually pure, strive to be righteous, look after the weak and hurting that the world has abandoned... doesn't seem like a sustainable way to change the government for the better, but (to be fair) I think this model assumed the world was going to end in a generation or two.
Guess what? The world didn't end and you schmucks have to pay your taxes. Hail Caesar!
