The Jews following Jesus asked him he they should pay taxes to Caesar. He pretty much asked who's name was on the coin. They said Caesar, and Jesus said then you shall pay Caesar what already belongs to him, and God what belongs to him.
Now in current day America churches don't have to pay taxes, because of mans law of christians in the Senate. Do you think we should pay taxes anyway? Jesus view then would mean, who's face is on that coin? George Washington? Then we should pay what is owed to the state or country. I think personally churches should pay tax. Whats yalls thoughts.
Matthew 22:17-21
17Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
18But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites?
19Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
20And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?
21They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.
