RESPONSES TO "IMMIGRATION"

RESPONSES TO “IMMIGRATION”

EBB4: Why did I publish “What Does the Bible Say about Immigration? (and How Should Christians Respond)” yesterday? Because of hateful attitudes some Christian’s and others express on immigration. Plus, I too am a descendant of immigrants. As with Jim and Diane’s comments, I am pro orderly immigration that includes careful screening, else the USA becomes even more chaotic than presently is.

Jim: “[The article is] Close to home 2019: America is a sovereign country and as such has established rules and laws protecting our borders. That said ... immigration standing alone is not the issue. The issue is illegal entry into our, or any other country. Legal immigration that is allowed, thru a set of fair rules, is not wrong and should be embraced by anyone intending to lawfully enter. This whole "immigration question," as presented in your email, sort of reminds of entry into heaven.  NO ONE is allowed entry except thru the blood of Christ and all that goes with that. God's rule. Trying to go around that rule will never work. Period!!   Just my thoughts ....”

Diane: “Legal immigration is fine.  Illegal is not.  The illegal immigration problem taken up so much

Government monies that the veterans, mainly homeless disabled veterans, mentally ill, 

and our own poor have suffered.

  My grandparents had to prove they could support themselves.  They had to have physicals 

at Ellis Island.  My mother’s father was sent back, because he had an eye disease. Plus, their families who had come here earlier said they would support them until they found jobs.
