What shall we pay to God?

My Sunday Scripture 2011.10.16



-----------------------------
The text: Matthew 22:15-21
-----------------------------

15 Then the Pharisees went away to work out between them how to trap him in what he said.

16 And they sent their disciples to him, together with some Herodians, to say, 'Master, we know that you are an honest man and teach the way of God in all honesty, and that you are not afraid of anyone, because human rank means nothing to you.

17 Give us your opinion, then. Is it permissible to pay taxes to Caesar or not?'

18 But Jesus was aware of their malice and replied, 'You hypocrites! Why are you putting me to the test?

19 Show me the money you pay the tax with.' They handed him a denarius,

20 and he said, 'Whose portrait is this? Whose title?'

21 They replied, 'Caesar's.' Then he said to them, 'Very well, pay Caesar what belongs to Caesar -- and God what belongs to God.'

My Reading Notes:

We all know what is the thing for Ceasar. But do we know, what is the thing belongs to God?

What shall we pay to God?

Please tell me, if you can.
