CHRISTIANITY AND BORDERS

Christianity and Borders - God's in favor of both.

Democrats say deportation is “inhumane.” They argue illegal immigrants just wanted a better life and shouldn’t be punished. But God Himself established borders — Israel had them — and He also commanded compassion for those passing through. Borders and compassion are not opposites; they go together.

The last administration let in 21 million people, handed out Social Security numbers, benefits, and housing, while many paid no taxes and some committed crimes. Then today's Democrats claimed deportation would leave crops rotting and hotels dirty — as if the only value of these people was cheap labor. That’s not compassion. That’s slavery with benefits.

Let’s be honest: Today's Democrats didn’t bring them here out of love. They brought them for votes. That is not treating people as equals in God’s sight. It’s exploitation.

Moses didn’t sneak through foreign lands on the journey to The Promised Land — he asked permission. Sometimes he was told yes, sometimes no. That’s order. That’s respect. (See Exodus 4 and Deuteronomy 3) America has a proper process for entry too. Returning to that order isn’t cruelty. It’s justice. It’s dignity.

To be crystal clear, I do not despise illegal immigrants, in fact I love the character and work ethic they bring with them. I do object to the false sense of security previous administrations sold to them. That is cruel. A country is not a country if it has no borders or rules in place for crossing it.
