Ned,
I have been reading through your "for free public consumption" publication(thanks) since I heard about it last month. Only last week, I shared in church about jurisdiction, but did not go into the tax end of things. Jesus was in front of Pilate and Pilate desperately wanted jurisdiction if only Jesus would give it to him. "Plead not guilty, for crying out loud!" Pilate was thinking so that he could then be the judge. Even with a threat of his worldly power, Jesus only said that Pilate's power only came from the Father who gave it.
I guess that's why we don't plea Guilty or Not guilty in court. THAT gives the jurisdiction. Sorry no fresh thoughts on your book yet. But will post as time permits. Thanks for taking the time to go against a strong current.
