And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Matthew 10:28
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away. Revelation 21:4
It is more accurate to say taxation is extortion than it is to say theft. Theft would be if they took your money w/o your knowledge, extortion is threatening you to give them money.
