Jesus And The Powers That Be

Oct 19, 2025    Tony Stephens

The Pharisees, Sadducees, and Herodians came together to trap Jesus with loaded questions about taxes and the resurrection. But every attempt failed. With one sentence, Jesus reframed the debate:

“Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”


This message reminds us that while earthly authorities have their place, ultimate allegiance belongs to God alone. You were made in His image—you belong to Him.
