One of the fascinating things about following leftists on social media is that they are lemmings. The order goes out that all must put up a specific meme and, suddenly, all do. That’s why my long-ago high school classmates (99% of whom are leftists), suddenly started posting a variation of a meme insisting that Leviticus—a part of the Bible that is so dear to conservative hearts—mandates accepting illegal aliens. Naturally, these leftists, who wouldn’t recognize the Bible if it bit them, are completely wrong.
The most popular version of this meme, the one with almost 6 million views, came from Devin Duke:

Christian or not, if you want to come to this country, get in line behind all of the others. Illegal immigrants seem to want to bypass all of the waiting that comes with the policies and procedures of becoming legal. Christians will understand the Greatest Commandment so I will have that argument with them. Treat the people who have been waiting in line with respect and get behind them. . .

verse 33 of that meme in King Jim: "And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not vex him."
definition of sojourn - stay somewhere temporarily
These people are not passing through. That might be a verse for Mexico, but not the US.

It is very simple: Liberalism and Christianity are mutually exclusive. Leftists reject the Bible and all that is in it unless they can use it for their political purpose.

I remember, "he who does not work shall not eat." That alone rejects the illegal immigration. The murder, rapes, beatings, drugs, human trafficking and stealing from American taxpayers serves to seal the deal.

When leftists start living out biblical principles instead of picking, choosing, and twisting scriptures to support their evil, well, they stop being leftists, don't they? Until then, they can pound sand thinking they can tell us how to live what we know better than they. Leftism is a disease; it's not some moral virtue or high ground for viewing the world. Their worldview is evil and demonic. Straight up!

The lesson of the temptation of Christ is that the Devil can quote scripture. All of his quotes came from Deuteronomy but... I imagine the Devil read Leviticus, too.

Excellent article, as usual, by Widburg. There are Old Testament and New Testament verses addressing immigration; and leftists pick and choose and interpret them according to their agenda. However, Christ's two great commandments are clear: To love the Lord Our God first; and secondly, to treat our brother as ourselves. Fix the VERY broken and corrupt citizenship path so that people who have waited years can finally get in; deport every illegal criminal we can find; and offer generous deals to non-criminal illegal individuals and families to self-deport. If they want to try and come in again, let them apply. If they don't self-deport, they had their chance. They can never come back once they're caught.

Jesus says “I am the way”. He does not say I am the shoulder you can get a free ride on.

There were no food stamps, Sec. 8 Housing, Medicaid, and public schools in the year 2,000 BC that had to be paid for by permanent residents. There's a big difference between being kind and welcoming vs. bankrupting yourself.

So all the Lefties are saying the same 'theme of the day'..... again.
Remember Journ-O-List, where they all got their daily marching orders?
A successor group is in operation, and has been for many years. We can see their effect every day.
Just like when you see smoke, you know there's a fire.
Letting in all the Islamists is destroying France, and destroying England.
The same thing is happening here, but we are not as far along.

I distinctly recall in Ezra, HaShem (G-d) directing the expulsion of foreign wives who refused to convert to Judaism and their anchor babies.

Someday the left will write their own bible. They will probably use an AI program to do it.

Non Christians and atheists always cherry pick Bible verses to try and make their political points.

Immigration is the business of Caesar, not the Church. If you want to get biblical about it.

If democrats are so anxious to help others...donate to Samaritans' Purse//they do God's work with compassion...it didn't take long for them to get to Texas to help with equipment and necessities such as water and food....for those soooo concerned as to MY christiany...and what it means to them...I suggest you follow the Ten Commandments given to Moses for the people...it's a perfect reminder as to where to go and what to do....
