Does The Bible Back Up Trump’s Immigration Policies?

In your heart of hearts did you really need to read this article to know the answer?

If so, the answer is:

OF COURSE NOT!

To all my Christian friends who think Jesus Christ would be a Trump Supporting Republican, know there is zero chance Jesus would agree with Donald Trump on immigration seeing as Donald’s platform is in direct contradiction to the bible. Not even to mention the fact Jesus Christ himself was once a refugee fleeing oppression. If you want to worship the alter of Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity, then go ahead, but understand you are in direct opposition to Christianity when you do so. I don’t need to say much more on this subject, as the bible can more than speak for itself.

Leviticus 19:34 King James Version (KJV)

34 But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

 

We are to open our doors to strangers 

Job 31:32 The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveler.

For all those who say illegals don’t deserve “constitutional rights” …Our rights are not “given” to us by the government, but something we have by birth from our creator. 

Exodus 12:49: One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among you.

Exodus 23:9 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

Understand by turning away refugees and immigrants you would have also turned away Jesus Christ, for he also was a refugee fleeing persecution. And how much more evil is it, that the refugees we are turning away are those whose lives were destroyed in large part by OUR government??

Matthew 2:12 

12 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.

14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:

15 And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.

The bible teaches we should give no respect or regard to a person’s status, lineage, nationality, or race

Deuteronomy 10:17-20 King James Version (KJV) 

17 For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:

18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.

19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. “

Malachi 3:5

And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the Lord of hosts.

The bible says the kindness we show foreigners is not “weakness” but a testament to Jesus Christ!!!  These people have come to our country because they have heard great things. How evil is it to respond to them with cruelty and a complete disregard for compassion!?

I Kings 41

41 Moreover concerning a stranger, that is not of thy people Israel, but cometh out of a far country for thy name’s sake;

42 (For they shall hear of thy great name, and of thy strong hand, and of thy stretched out arm;) when he shall come and pray toward this house;

43 Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for: that all people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as do thy people Israel; and that they may know that this house, which I have builded, is called by thy name.

(Jesus would have supported Refugees, just as he would have supported slaves fleeing the oppression of their masters) 

Deuteronomy 23:15

15 Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee:

16 He shall dwell with thee, even among you, in that place which he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it liketh him best: thou shalt not oppress him.
