Christian Denominations: How They Differ on Not Paying Taxes
Catholic Church
Tax evasion is listed among the injustices of theft (2409); evading significant tax is grave matter requiring restitution.
Catechism of the Catholic Church
Protestant Churches
Protestants universally condemn tax evasion as theft and lawbreaking; under-the-table income and unreported cash are treated as honesty failures.
Holy Bible (Protestant canon)
Eastern Orthodox
Orthodox ethics grounds tax obedience in Romans 13 and the Lord's own payment of the temple tax; evasion requires confession and repayment.
Orthodox Church Tradition

Christianity's tax doctrine was settled by Jesus in the most adversarial setting imaginable: interrogators trying to trap him with a Roman coin asked whether taxes should be paid to a pagan emperor. 'Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's' (Mark 12:17) — and then, in a quieter scene, Jesus paid the temple tax he did not even owe, rather than 'give offense' (Matthew 17:24-27). Paul made it explicit: 'pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed' (Romans 13:7), written about a government Paul had every complaint against. The Catholic Catechism names tax evasion directly in its theft list (2409), and the Protestant conscience-test tradition reduces it to a sentence: would you file the same return if the auditor were sitting beside you? The tradition does distinguish evasion (hiding income, lying on forms — sin) from legal avoidance (using deductions the law intends — not sin), and even Jesus' coin-in-the-fish's-mouth miracle implies using lawful means. But the quiet fudging of cash income is simply theft distributed across fellow citizens.

Is minimizing my taxes through deductions a sin?
No — using deductions the law intends is lawful avoidance, and all three traditions permit it; the sin line is crossed by hiding income, false statements, or unreported cash.

What about taxes that fund unjust things?
Traditions still require payment: Jesus paid a Roman tax that funded legions, and Paul wrote Romans 13 under Nero.

I have not reported cash income for years — what now?
The traditions converge on the same program: stop, calculate, disclose, and repay; tax authorities' voluntary disclosure programs exist for exactly this moment.
