Hi hobe. If Jesus was saying the opposite and Jews knew it, the Pharisees would have condemned Christ on it and would have run to the Romans screaming sedition. They were unable to trick Him with the question.
He meant exactly what He said. No interpretation necessary. Coins, taxes, gold aren't important. Give it to whomever wants or needs it, and concentrate on what Christ said about Heaven. Gold is so unimportant they pave the streets with it there. For enduring down here we live in mansions in Paradise. Jesus was making a distinction between what is valuable and what is not in our Father's eyes. Christ put things in perspective.
wrong again Ram------the Pharisees did not LIKE THE ROMANS. When Jesus was hiding from
the Romans he lived amongst the Pharisees. Jesus was a Pharisee. Do you have OTHER examples
of Jews TURNING JEWS into the Pharisees? Your catechism whore lied. The people prone to cooperate with the romans were THE SADDUCEES. Your catechism whore lied again
No, I am not. The Pharisees used the Romans to their advantage. They didn't have to like them. The question the Pharisees asked Christ was intentionally to get Him in trouble with Rome, not the Temple.
Christ never hid. Why would He? He was here on a mission. Christ was turned into Rome,(by a Jew), not to the Temple priests.
Christ was never a Pharisee. He taught in the Temple as a child, but was never well received as an adult. Jesus used the Pharisees as an example of how not to behave.
As for your smart remarks, they are uncalled for, and wrong again rosie. I had no catechism whore, since I have never been Catholic. And if I wasn't such a good Christian, I'd think maybe you're the whore.

your interpretation of the NT----which is far from trustworthy to begin with, is IDIOTIC.
Judas----according to the NT writing-----TOLD THE ROMANS WHERE JESUS WAS.
If he was a prominent well known person and NOT HIDING why would the romans
have trouble finding him? It was the TEMPLE PRIEST-----specifically CAIAPHAS-
a NOTORIOUS SADDUCEAN ROMAN SHILL ----who betrayed Jesus. Keep in mind---
the Pharisee influenced Sanhedrin REFUSED TO CONVICT HIM. The sophist excuse for
the non-conviction to which you have been exposed is-----the Sanhedrin had no POWER
to convict <<<<< bullshit. The Romans has no interest at all in what jew the jews
killed or convicted unless the "convict" was ONE OF THEIRS. You should learn some REAL
HISTORY. Some simple realities that seem to have escaped your notice------
There were two very important players who were in the pockets of the Romans----
what rome wanted THEY DID------Herod and Caiaphas. These people are not
considered "saints" in the annals of jewish history-------as is YOUR adolf
doppelganger SAINT PONTIUS PILATE. Know a people by their
HEROES. (an important point-----when thinking SANHEDRIN --think Pharisee-
When thinking "temple priests" at that time----think 'Roman appointed sadducean
shill). Btw-----just what were you told Pharisees were DOING?------If you tell me
that you did not believe as a kid that the "MONEY CHANGERS" in the temple
were Pharisee loan sharks-------you are lying. Keep in mind-----I attended sunday
school as a child------I know the drill

Ahh, reading the NT carefully seems to raise these types of questions..
Why did they need help from Judas finding Jesus when he wasn't hiding? Good question.
If Jesus was praying alone to God and his disciples were sleeping in gethsemane, who heard what Jesus said to God and wrote it down? Was Jesus wearing a wire? did they bug his robe?
Why, in stark contrast to the other three gospels, was Judas the only one given bread during the last supper according to the gospel of John? "And as soon as Judas received the bread, Satan entered him." Is eating the bread a blessing or a curse? Is it all a sick joke?
Hmmm, maybe there is a good reason? maybe they want the reader to notice and think? Maybe they they left big holes in the stories by accident? Maybe they were covertly revealing mysteries? Maybe its all a crock of shit? Maybe the gospels are a strange brew of choice words, a recipe for insanity, a curse like a cruel sword sent through the heart of nations because God loved the heathen Jew hating world so much?
And I wonder....I wa wa wa wa wonder....

Well, now we know where to find the absolute truth....shaman hobelim. Please defer to him from now on.
It's a commentary on the nature of money, not govt. itself, neither good nor evil, it's people who make something evil.
ahh you are both wrong
Anyone who won't do something as simple confessing to being a sinner and the doing something as holy as worshipping Jesus has to be a real unbelieving evil son of a bitch. A devil demon or at least an atheist.
That would be like God giving you a statue of a snake to turn to to be healed and then saying no thanks.
All a bunch of faithless ingrates!
Todays bible does not offer much advice on what to do if the wicked rule. It even suggests that a wicked ruler is a reflection of wicked people and may be judgment rendered by the lord. One must remember that at times in history it was the government decided what testiments would be in the bible it is not surprising that religion morphed to this current state. We are also for the most part relying on government sponsered translations of the original texts. Unless you speak aramaic do realy know what the original texts say?Bible study groups are based on well prepared materials, usually by very well educated members of the Faith. Also, bible studies are essential in bringing the Word to people and develop individual understanding of it.
But with all that well prepared materials, and with all that serious work and time put in by the group leader, can they still be wrong?
Here is an example. Apostle Paul writes to be a good citizen, do as your country tells you to, pay your taxes, and so on. But we already know, that half the countries impose special taxes that are developed specifically against Christians, in order to starve them to death. Most notably, Jordania has no Christian's left, as a result.
So, wouldn't the correct interpretation of Paul's word be, that Christians should no challenge their government, only. If your government is after you, do you have to put out? When Satan is after you, you are told not to put out. So, what is the correct bible study then?
