Countries Without Property Taxes: A Biblical Perspective
Several countries do not impose property taxes on residents or non-residents. Here are some examples:
Bahrain
Georgia
Dominica
Israel
Cambodia
Qatar
Kuwait
Liechtenstein
Malta
Monaco
Oman
Turks and Caicos Islands
Cook Islands
Saudi Arabia
Seychelles
Thailand
Faroe Islands
Fiji
Croatia
Sri Lanka
Cayman Islands
UAE
These countries either do not have property taxes at all or have very low property tax rates. This can make them attractive destinations for property investment and homeownership.
Biblical Perspective on Property and Taxes
The Bible provides insights into the ethical considerations and responsibilities associated with property ownership and taxation. Here are some scriptures that offer guidance on these topics:
Psalm 24:1: "The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it."
Genesis 1:28: "God blessed them and said to them, 'Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.'"
This verse discusses human dominion over the earth, which ties into the discussion of land use and stewardship.
Psalm 115:16: "The highest heavens belong to the Lord, but the earth he has given to mankind."
This scripture highlights the idea that the earth is entrusted to humans.
Conclusion
The absence of property taxes in certain countries can make them attractive destinations for property investment and homeownership.
As we consider property ownership and investment, let us remember the biblical call to stewardship, fairness, and responsible use of resources. By doing so, we honor God and contribute to the well-being of our communities.
In our journey through life, we often seek guidance and wisdom beyond our own understanding. St. Mykul’s prayer is a beautiful expression of this desire, a heartfelt plea for divine intervention and alignment with Jehovah’s will. It serves as a reminder of the profound connection we can cultivate with the divine, allowing us to become vessels of His wisdom and love.
St. Mykul’s prayer:
“I pray for Jehovah to speak through me all the time, and I pray for Jehovah to remove all my thoughts, and implant His thoughts all the time, as I do not even want my thoughts.”
