Our souls are worth more to The Lord than coins are to the Romans.

Mark 12:13-27
Give back to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's.
Sadducees who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a question.
Jesus replied, "When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angles in heaven. Now about the dead rising, God said to Moses, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Issac, and the God of Jacob. He is not the God of the dead, but of the living."
Why?
God's work and what belong to God is identical and do not mix with the world. God is beyond the world.
God is beyond the time and is the Lord of living. so when men are dead, they will be angels in heaven, there is not any relationship as they were on the world.
The face of Cesar was on the coin so he is saying give Cesar back his coins, and give God what is his which is yourself. Your soul! Give it back to the one who created you. Therefore yes he avoided the question to avoid being caught in the trap but the answer he gave was of great literary and teaching meaning. Our souls are worth more to The Lord than coins (taxes) are to the Romans.
 Jesus is Lord of the dead. And therefore they are not dead. For this he died and lived again. “Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live” (John 11:25). Praise the Lord! The Lord of the dead who are not dead!
How?
Our souls are worth more to the Lord than coins are to the world.
