Words of the week

Tax season is now upon us and though we may not want to, we must pay our tax bill.  
Don't get me wrong, many taxes are not fair.  The rich don't pay much tax and the
middle-class and the poor people pay all the tax.  

A huge company can make millions and possibly pay only a few thousands. But a middle-class
person making $50,000 a year can be put in jail for not paying $6000 in taxes. 

See what I mean, it's not fair, but we will let God judge the government. Jesus probably
didn’t agree with the Roman tax system, but He did pay taxes.   Peter was told to catch a fish
and look in its mouth and find money. Matt 27.24-27.   Jesus didn’t want to offend, so he
paid his taxes. 

​And I know we must do the very same thing. Romans 13.6-8.  1 Pt 2.13.
