Taxes: Would Jesus Pay Them?

"Is It Right to Pay Taxes?"

That's what the religious leaders of Jesus' day asked.

Christ saw thru their ruse and said, "...Bring me a silver coin. Let me look at it."

They brought him the coin.

He asked them, "Whose picture is this? And whose words?"

"Caesar's," they replied.

Then Jesus said to them, "Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar. And give to God what belongs to God."

They were amazed at him.

That same truth holds up today, over 2,000 years later.

Pay your taxes.
