What does it mean to render unto Caesar what is Caesar's? As Christians are we called to pay our taxes, and if so, is that because taxation is what God has established as the morally just mechanism for funding public services in society? In this episode we dive into the Matthew 22 passage this phrase is sourced from, and seek to use historical and theological context to explain what this passage is actually saying, not what proponents of the state have twisted it to mean.

The Biblical Anarchy Podcast was created by Jacob Winograd as a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute, with the purpose of making the case for a free society and decentralized governance based on Biblical principles of limited authority and imitating Christ’s example of the leader/servant. If we render unto God what is God’s, we cannot bow down to Caesar or render anything unto him except that which he deserves. The podcast consists of exploring different Bible passages, anarchist theory, Austrian Economics, and finding the connection and harmony between them.
The Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians for Liberty Network, a coalition of shows that promote human flourishing by spreading the message of liberty. Find other shows at christiansforliberty.net
