Read Mark 12:14-17 "Teacher, we know that you are true, and care for no man: for you regard not the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it. And they brought it. And he said unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's. Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
All of us know the incident here. People want to tempt Jesus, knowing that Jesus is not a respecter of persons, they asked this question with an intention if they can evade paying tax to the King. In our practical lives too, many do not know how to differentiate things between legal responsibilities and spiritual responsibilities. Being a christian, you cannot neglect either of these responsibilities thinking that you are super spiritual. Assuming that one has lot of faith in God, he cannot try to evade paying taxes, executing one's duties, responsibilities or even pray that these things should be done automatically. If you attemtp to do so, you are abusing the concept of FAITH. It is equally equal to what Satan has questioned Jesus asking turn these stones to become bread ["by faith"].
If we apply these verses to our day-to-day life we can find many clearcut solutions to our problems, being spiritual people. We have to understand between these two aspects and act accordingly.
Many are thinking and teaching that being spiritual people we can ignore our legal responsibilities.
When I say legal, many responsibilities fall under this category, namely, judicial responsibilities, social responsibilities, familial responsibilities etc. etc. People are thinking since they are not of the world and will fly directly to the Zion they do not bother for any of the above. But they are ignoring a point of being in this world they have, at least, basic responsibilities, duties, which they only have to fulfill. There are some pastors who teach even to deny their own children and always sit in prayer and be involved in spiritual ministry. But who will take care of his children? Your neighbor cares for your children and wife? Then what are you living for? To exercise faith almost all the verses are mishandled by many. The reason is inability to differentiate between things, which is spiritual and which is legal. You are blessed with a wife/husband, children and other dependents. You are most responsible to those little souls, whom God has given you, (children) having given birth to them and being a cause to their birth, you cannot neglect your responsibilities. Outside souls/believers, may come to church or leave the church. But those few souls in your own family, they cannot go to anyone else for their need other than you. They cannot go anywhere else as long as you are alive. Such is the great responsibility being a head of the family, which you cannot evade saying that you have lot of faith on God.
For example, one pastor wanted to go out for gospel preaching. This is the will of God and nobody can deny that. He moved with faith, went with 1000 people, preached and returned. Police caught him and filed three cases against him. Now police is calling the pastor almost everyday for interrogation. Why this happened? He mixed up both responsibilities what belongs to God, and what belongs to King. He should have take a police permission and done his job. This is how every church or family is suffering from lack of understanding.
Jesus himself being the Son of God, did not mix both what belongs to Caesar(worldly responsibilities) and Godly responsilities. Does he lack in FAITH? Is he a stupid? Want to overtake Him? Want to showcase yourself greater than Him?
