Arrested For Tax Evasion

Theme for the Week: THE CHRISTIAN AND CIVIL RESPONSIBILITY– CHRISTIANS' OBLIGATION TO PAY TAX

Reading: 2 Kings 17:1-4
_______________________

‭2 Kings 17:3 NIV‬
[3] Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up to attack Hoshea, who had been Shalmaneser’s vassal and had paid him tribute.


Hoshea’s downfall was not just a result of political rebellion but a failure to honor the commitments that were required of him.

Similarly, when we evade taxes or fail to fulfill our financial obligations to the government, we undermine the order and stability that God has established in society. This can lead to severe consequences, both legally and spiritually.

Let us, therefore, learn from Hoshea’s mistake and ensure that we are diligent in meeting our tax obligations.
Shalom.

Let's Pray:
Heavenly Father, we praise You. Lord, grant us the wisdom and discipline to fulfill our responsibilities to the authorities You have placed over us, in Jesus' name. Amen.
