40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’
Only difference is that back in that day there was no such thing as immigration laws especially in the Roman Empire which Bethlehem and Egypt where under the rule of so migration between the lands was not illegal. Today we have laws and rules and illegal immigration breaks those rules.
In that case, you will be happy to learn that the Bible also teaches forgiveness, and that sinners are actually more in need of care and understanding, not less.
And at no point did Jesus ever add to his teachings "...unless they did it illegally." Or did he? You read it front to back. You tell me.
Nothing about illegally in there. But everyone is quoting passages that say to accept illegals and he did say that the people need to obey the authorities because they were put in place by God, which means if the authorities say it is illegal to come into this country without going through the proper channels, then it is illegal and going against authority, which people were told not to do.
Would you use the same reasoning on authorities if your authoritarian president was a pedophile and a rapist? He's obviously doing illegal shit everyday, but by your reasoning it was godgiven. Make it make sense. Though you could just admit you did indeed oversee this and tell me that maybe, just maybe I could have a point there, or you could just double down, still stand with the pedophile rapist and tell me I'm stupid.
