God and Caesar

                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              
  
 "And Jesus said to them, 'Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.' And they were amazed at Him."     (Mark 12:17)

Jesus' most fundamental purpose and teaching is always the Kingdom of God.

He taught that God created the heavens and earth and all that is in them, and that God forever rules over all things. Jesus' teaching raises a fundamental question:

what things did Jesus believe belong to Caesar ?

The fundamental question for Jesus' followers is whether we will think as radically as He does.
