I am often asked my opinion on immigration since CIR works directly with immigrants. My opinion has been shaped as I have searched the Scriptures for insight into God’s answer to this issue. In public discourse hot topics that pop up are ones like: rule of law and amnesty, government benefits, poverty, jobs, the economy, taxes and words related to general xenophobia (fear of strangers). Most Christians immediately recognize the concept of the Rule of Law as being addressed in the Scriptures, and most often associate it with Romans 13 where the Bible says to obey those who have rule over you. I would suggest however that there are some additional Biblical concepts which should be part of the conversation like justice and grace.
