Coin (Matthew 22:15-22)




WHOSE IMAGE IS PRESSED UPON THE COIN

A MAN’S HE ANSWERS


HOW MUCH IS IT WORTH

THEY ARE ALL VALUED THE SAME


HOW CAN THAT BE

THEIR MAKER DETERMINES THEIR VALUE



GIVE TO CAESAR HIS DUE

BUT GIVE TO GOD FULL VALUE


ANYTHING WHICH DIMINISHES A MAN

IS WRONG


ANYTHING WHICH DEBASES THE COIN

IS WRONG



THE COIN’S IMAGE

IS AN ECHO OF GOD’S FACE

 
BUT WE ARE ALL THE IMPORTANT PEOPLE

THE REST OF THEM ARE RABBLE


YOU ARE ALL OF THE SAME VALUE


BUT…BUTBUT..BUTBUTBUT…


IS YOUR EYE JEALOUS

BECAUSE I AM GOOD


HOW DARE YOU CALL INFERIOR

WHAT I HAVE MADE


HOW DARE YOU

TRY TO CHEAPEN

ANOTHER’S COIN



IF YOU TRY

YOU ARE ONLY HOARDING DUST

AND YOUR WEALTH

IS ONLY SAND TRICKLING THROUGH YOUR FINGERS
