Speaking of which...
"Each one must give as he has decided in his heart,
not reluctantly or under compulsion,
for God loves a cheerful giver."
2 Corinthians 9:7
Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not? Should we pay them, or should we not? 15 But, knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, Why put me to the test? Bring me a denarius[d] and let me look at it. 16 And they brought one. And he said to them, Whose likeness and inscription is this? They said to him, Caesar's. 17 Jesus said to them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. -Mark 15-17
"Do not pervert justice;
do not show partiality to the poor
or favoritism to the strong,
but judge your neighbor fairly."
Leviticus 19:15
"Sell your possessions and give to those in need. This will store up treasure for you in heaven! And the purses of heaven never get old or develop holes. Your treasure will be safe; no thief can steal it and no moth can destroy it. -Luke 12:33
"You shall not go after the majority to do evil.
Neither shall you testify in a matter in court
to incline after the majority to pervert justice."
Exodus 23:2
But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. -Matt 4:17
In the future...pick a covenant and stick with it. You're quoting from two different covenants as if they are one and the same. You are either under the law or under Grace, but not both.
