This is about taxes and tithes. Not submission to the state.

I'll take what Jesus said "render unto Caesar what is Caesar's".
Considering both Jesus' statements that were recorded for us and Paul's letters are equal in authority, I'll take both. Jesus and Paul are in harmony.

Should we respect authority/Government? Sure but they have to earn it.
Actually, no, they don't have to earn it (though they should act as if they should). The respect and honor (obedience) is owed to the government because God has instituted government as an authority.
