    Render Unto Caesar

    Contributed by Charles Payne on Jan 29, 2026
     | 122 views

    It is Tax Season again; and Tax season stirs frustration, suspicion, and sometimes resentment. God knew it would. That is why Scripture does not merely command obedience—it explains the exchange.

    “RENDER UNTO CAESAR” — WHY PAYING TAXES IS A GOSPEL-SHAPED ACT SCRIPTURE READING: ROMANS 13 Everyone must submit to governing authorities. For all authority comes from God, and those in positions of authority have been placed there by God. 2 So anyone who rebels against authority is rebelling ...read more

    We live in a society where most of us recognize the need for standards.

    This is one of the problems we hear so much about in our public education.
