Does the Bible Forbid Border Control?

What is he going to say? Will he say God ‘doesn’t want’ Americans to turn away the migrant caravan like John Kasich says? Or will he defend border walls saying that Heaven has walls and a gate but Hell has open borders?

  1. In the Old Testament/Tanakh, the verses calling for the Israelites to treat “foreigners” well (some translations use “immigrants”, “strangers”, and other terms) all appear to assume that the foreigners will adopt the Hebrew religion and laws. In other words, they assimilate. People who try to lead the Hebrews away from God and his commands, whether Hebrew or foreigner, are summarily killed. Would the Lefties who try to shame us with Bible verses be OK with that?

  2. Romans 13:1-7 ESV

    Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake of conscience.

  3. Well, what’s the koran say about it?
    THAT’S what’s important!

    The “religion of peace” and all that shit, right?
    Do the ragheads welcome all the Jews, Gentiles, Christians, Buddhists, Maoists, Globaloney Climate Worshippers, Socialists, Nihilists, and immigrants of all other religious affiliations into their countries with open arms?

    Or just keep it simple – let’s look at, I don’t know, say … mexico’s and north korea’s immigration policies? Pretty much “open borders” I’d guess.

  4. No.

    Besides, any Gentile who wanted to join Israel had to proselyte, meaning assimilate one hundred percent and become a Jew.

    And the Temple had areas off limits to “dogs.”

    If we are going to quote Scripture, an honest application to our present crisis should be clear.

  5. There is a whole book in the Holy Bible about a man, Nehemiah building a wall as instructed by God.
    How conveniently idiotic for the left to dismiss Judea Christian history that actually supports defense of sovereignty when virtue signaling Christians.

  6. BTW, the guy in the video is a SJW. Self described Christians who consider themselves activists have a self righteous agenda – not Christ-centered. American churches are infested with these socialists.

  7. Much said about walls in the OT. Kick them down and get snake bit. God’s purposes are always to keep the walls up or see they are re-built, it’s why Watchmen walk the walls. It’s why we are told to “watch”.
    It is a mistake to think the words in the OT describing “foreigners, aliens, or children” mean only physical people. One can’t understand the Psalms without understanding they reveal the true enemy, those that mask themselves with human personality to effect history with evil – while staying hidden.
