Jesus said certain items belong to God that should be given (rendered) to God. What are these items?
Firstly we must realize that Jesus sees no conflict between Roman taxation and Israel's worship of God. However, some items that we must give to God are tithes, our whole self, (mind, body and soul),obedience, and offerings of sacfrice.

FAITH.
FAITH Faith is trust, hope and belief in the goodness, trustworthiness or reliability of a person, concept or entity. It can also refer to beliefs that are not based on proof (e.g. faith that a child will grow up to be a good person). We do not know for sure that, that child will grow up to be a good person, we do not even know if that child will even grow up, but we have FAITH. We have faith that with faith they will.  Understanding FAITH is very simple. Faith is belief, and faith is also what we believe in. Take this statement for e.g. We have faith in God that things will be justified in the end time. Therefore we have faith in God, which is also defined as faith that things will be justified in the end.What I am trying to say is Faith is belief. The ability to believe in something is called FAITH. Faith is also believing in something that’s unseen, and relying on that something, therefore GOD is also FAITH.Hence the reason we have faith in faith.  We believe in God.  Religious faith is a belief in a transcendent reality, a religious teacher, a set of teachings or a Supreme Being. Generally speaking, it is offered as a means by which the truth of the proposition, "things will turn out well in the end," can be enjoyed in the present and secured in the future. Religious faith appeals to that reality which is beyond the range of normal physical experience (e.g. the future). Some critics of faith have argued that faith is opposed to reason. In contrast, advocates of faith argue that the proper domain of faith concerns questions which cannot be settled by evidence. This is exemplified by attitudes about the future, which (by definition) has not yet occurred. Logical reasoning may proceed from any set of assumptions, positive or negative. In this view, faith is simply a positive assumption Shalom. Stay Blessed.

What is Jesus trying to teach with this parable? Hint: The vineyard (where grapes are grown) is Israel; The farmer is God; the servants are the prophets who were sent by God; the son is Jesus; and the tenants are religious leaders of the Jews.

After the people rejected or killed the servants whom God sent to reap from the vineyard, God sent His Son Jesus and being He was the Son of the farmer, one though he would have gaines more respect, but they killed Him so they could reap everything for themselves.

That is why it is said in the Bible that the chief cornerstone was rejected by its own. This same cornerstone is Jesus, we cannot do anything that is good without Him.
