What the Bible says about: Taxes
| Mark 12:13-17 | And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words. |
| And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? | |
|
Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a |
|
| And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's. | |
| And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him. | |
| Luke 20:20-26 | And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor. |
|
And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person of any, but teachest the way of God |
|
| Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no? | |
| But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me? | |
|
Shew me a |
|
| And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's. | |
| And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace. | |
| Romans 13:1-8 |
Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are |
| Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. | |
| For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: | |
| For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. | |
| Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. | |
| For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. | |
| Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour. | |
| Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. |
