When asked about paying taxes to Caesar, Jesus said, “Give to Caesar that which is Caesar’s and give to God that which is God’s.”
Jesus was not saying that people can keep Church and State separate in laws. Jesus was saying to give to Caesar those things that he can demand as their head of State. But God’s laws are not ever to be ignored, and Caesar had no authority above God over these things. If Caesar told people to break God’s laws, is that then justification for them to do so?
How can someone claim to a Christian if the person ignores God’s laws when politics is involved? Can you vote for the approval of anti-Christ ways and be a follower of Christ?
Once again people are taking a sentence out of the Bible and twisting it to pretend justification for their ignoring of God’s rules and laws. People also use the statement, “it’s just business”, as if that allows them to do as they please and ignore God’s rules and laws while conducting their business.
You either follow God or you are against God in everything you do. Nothing in life can be separated out from God.
