How much did the 4000 give when Jesus fed them after the sermon on the mount?Taxes go to Caesar. Offerings to the Church are to God. Therefore, tell me again how Christianity is like a socialist state. Tell me how the Good Samaritan helped the guy that was mugged.17 Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”Finish the verse.Give to Caesar, what is Caesars.Oh, good grief.Thats exactly what he was doing.Irrelevant to the topic. Unless you think Jesus was collecting taxes for the government.By surrounding himself with the rich women and living off of them. He got the tax out of a fish.Where did Jesus or other biblical figures preach to redistribute wealth through the force of government?
Verse?
Who bankrolled his ministry?
Luke 8
Women Who Supported Jesus
8 After this, Jesus traveled from one city and village to another. He spread the Good News about God’s kingdom. The twelve apostles were with him. 2 Also, some women were with him. They had been cured from evil spirits and various illnesses. These women were Mary, also called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out; 3 Joanna, whose husband Chusa was Herod’s administrator; Susanna; and many other women. They provided financial support for Jesus and his disciples.
You think " financial support for Jesus and his disciples" was financial support for the government.
This is why so many people dismiss you.
What government was Jesus collecting taxes for from these women? Why would he not have collected taxes from others in the community, too?
---------------------------------------------------
They paid their own taxes and he was just concerned about his. Taxes and Church tidings.
They expect people to support them.
