Satisfied Enough?

Mark 12:12-17 (NIV)

13 Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to Jesus to catch him in his words.

14 They came to him and said, "Teacher, we know you are a man of integrity.

Mark 12:12-17 (NIV)

You aren't swayed by men, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay taxes to Caesar or not?

15 Should we pay or shouldn't we?"

Mark 12:12-17 (NIV)

But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. "Why are you trying to trap me?" he asked. "Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.“

16 They brought the coin, and he asked them, "Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?"

Mark 12:12-17 (NIV)

"Caesar's," they replied.

17 Then Jesus said to them, "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's." And they were amazed at him.
