This is a theme in all 4 Gospels but it is most clearly displayed in Jesus's treatment of the outcasts and women that is highlighted by Luke.
because he thought everyone was equal

they thought it gave equal rights to everyone
He was liberal for his time, he detested the class system and thought of everyone as equal
because they thought everyone should be equal.
that everyone is equal.. that everyone is equal..
Merits-Everyone is Equal. Demerits-Everyone is Equal.
It seems to me that the only people that were suspicious of Jesus were the ruling Jews, the Pharisees and Sadducees, because they thought that Jesus made himself equal with God: Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. (John 5.18)
the declaration of independence says that everyone is created equal
because men and everyone else thought that god made men better and gave them the rights to do that
Martin Luther King Jr did not think everyone was the same. He thought that everyone should be judged by the same standard. There is an important difference.
Simon Peter was known for his loyalty and courage, as demonstrated by his willingness to follow Jesus even in the face of danger. He was also a natural leader among the disciples, often being the spokesperson and taking on important roles within the early Christian community. Peter's passion and enthusiasm for his faith is also evident in his actions and teachings.
