I did not comment on this one when it first hit the news, because I really wanted to take my time on this one. I wanted to slowly pick it apart piece by piece, so there would be nothing left for Liberals and allies of illegal immigration to chew on. So far I’ve seen commentary on this, but I’m hoping to offer details and perspective not previously given.
So lets start with the issue. Queen Dingbaticus Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton has vowed to stop efforts to treat illegal immigrants like criminals. Even though they broke US laws, Hillary obviously sees no crime done when someone enters a nation in full violation of the rules for entry. She offered this very odd statement about the Bible.
Clinton vows to block bill criminalizing illegal immigrants

Expose the Left has video of Hillary’s twisted sermon for the media. I usually expect this level of scripture twisting and flat out lies from someone like Farra-the-Con, but to see an elected US Senator try to pull it off is a sad sign of who is being allowed to decide legislation for this nation.
Dennis of blog Fire and Hammer has this to say:
Jesus: The Illegal Immigrant?
|
I’ll start my breakdown of Hillary’s lunacy with the parable of the Good Samaritan.
Luke 10:25-37 (New King James Version)
|
In the parable, a man who went from Jerusalem to Jericho was beaten nearly to death. This “immigrant” was not found in violation of immigration laws by authorities. He was beaten by a gang of thugs. So the hero “The Good Samaritan” helped him. America helps people fearing death from other nations all the time. It’s called political asylum! America grants it to people from around the world who might otherwise be killed. Neither the beaten man or the Samaritan were found to be breaking any laws. For a Samaritan to help save the life of someone from Jerusalem was not a common social gesture, but it was not illegal to help the man from Jerusalem. So Hillary’s attempt to bring up the Good Samaritan is not applicable. People who enter the USA illegally, already had jobs where they came from. These people are not fearing for their lives. They want a pay raise. Regarding loving them as I do myself, I follow the laws of this land. And expect others to do as I do myself. So I can’t excuse an illegal immigrant, when I strive to follow the law myself. I do not break laws for a pay raise.
America has given plenty to Mexico, to try and help that nation grow. It is America’s military that protects nations like Mexico and Canada from ever being attacked and is the reason they don’t need a strong military themselves. America defends the lives of Mexicans by default, given their location. So we give Mexicans plenty of love where they are. Neither the aid given by the Good Samaritan or America would be deemed criminal activity under bills like HR 4437. America takes in foreigners needing medical treatment all the time. Countless times crippled children from Arab nations have been given medical treatment in America. Even when protests have taken place in those nations with chants of “death to America”.
So let’s move on to Jesus, the Lord of all.
Matthew 2:12-15 (New King James Version)
|
Jesus was being hunted by Herod, so Mary and Joseph took him to Egypt, based on instructions from an angel of the Lord. This means they immigrated into Egypt. There is no record of them breaking any laws to enter. Given they were being hunted by the government (Herod), they were candidates for political asylum under US laws. This means Jesus would not be found in violation of any US laws.
Maybe Hillary should have taken the time to read the next 3 versus:
16) Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men.
17) Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
18) “ A voice was heard in Ramah,
Lamentation, weeping, and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children,
Refusing to be comforted,
Because they are no more.”
Herod ordered the slaughter of innocent children for his own convenience. To protect his own stature in life. Given the mass killings in America via abortion, one can only look at Hillary and wonder if her pro-Choice position agrees more with the view of Herod or God? (I say Herod.)
Jesus, Joseph and Mary later ended up in Nazareth. There is no record of them ever breaking any immigration laws in their travels.
Everyone knows of Jesus and his 12 disciples traveling to minister the gospel. They never were known to break any immigration laws in their efforts. Jesus taught them to respect laws and only go where they were welcomed. Look at what Jesus told the 70 other disciples, that nobody ever talks about. (Yes, there were more than just 12.)
Luke 10:1-12 (New King James Version)
|
When Jesus sent the 70 in groups of 2, he told them to go where they were received. If they were not received, they were instructed to tell the people of the town that the kingdom of God stopped by and wipe that town’s dust from their feet. Those disciples were not entering cities to try and stay permanently and be given some form of citizenship. They were visiting temporarily and not trying to overstay and temporary visa. Nothing in bills like HR 4437 would prevent people from VISITING the United States. In addition, the disciples were visiting cities to spread the gospel, not to try and get a pay raise.
Finally, lets look at the immigration policies for the area run by God.
John 3:18 (New King James Version)
|
God only allows those who follow the proper immigration guidelines to enter the kingdom of heaven. No illegals allowed! So Jesus along with the Father keep a very tight reign on immigration into their kingdom.
Given all of this, I can find no way via scripture that Hillary Clinton’s words can be viewed as theologically accurate. I think this lie by Senator Clinton will be her ultimate undoing.

My Country Has Failed Me and My Fellow Americans
I’m just ticked. I need to keep my words brief or I’m likely to say something not suitable to come from the mind of a Christian.
Our US Senate has removed everything with any teeth from legislation to stop illegal immigration. Which wi…

Should Christians Help Facilitate Illegal Activity?
Is it right for a Christian to offer food and shelter to someone that robbed a bank? Of course not. We know that the thief should be in police custody and that the authorities are more than capable of providing food and shelter, in addition to a tri…
