Many of you who feel threatened by refugees seeking asylum claim to be faithful Christians, in reading the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth this is difficult to believe.

The Final Judgment
“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, jthen he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him kwill be gathered lall the nations, and mhe will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates nthe sheep from the goats. And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. Then othe King will say to pthose on his right, ‘Come, you qwho are blessed by my Father, rinherit sthe kingdom tprepared for you ufrom the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you wgave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you zvisited me, aI was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And bthe King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these dmy brothers, you did it to me.’
“Then he will say to those on his left, e‘Depart from me, you fcursed, into gthe eternal fire prepared for hthe devil and his angels. For iI was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, jyou did not do it to me.’ And these will go away kinto eternal punishment, but the righteous into leternal life.”

Until you are willing to abide by all of Christ's teachings do not try to twist some of them to suit your own agenda.

How many of the poor unfortunate souls that have crossed our borders are you housing, feeding and supporting? OR, our our less fortunate for that matter. "He who is without sin shall cast the first stone" or something like that. I'm a Catholic - 3 times removed.

Christ wasn't about greed so he would welcome them with open arms, he fed the 5000 and didn't call one of them a freeloader.

Liberals are always willing to care for others with someone else's money.

He also didn’t invite them to move in and eat for free the rest of their life.

They were people who lived there and not 5000 Egyptians or people from other lands who stormed the borders looking for free stuff. They were also people who were willing to listen to what he had to say.

You can't know that many. I remember Latino immigrants in New England who went right on welfare as soon as they could.

Who stormed Mexico's border? The caravan people. They haven't reached our border yet.

Sorry, reprobate, you won't get away with this. You, of all people, sermonizing with an appeal to authority argument in an attempt to invoke a guilt trip is not only dishonest, it is about as phony as you can get.

If you were a person of integrity, a man of principles, you'd put your energy into making your case for allowing foreign migrants to waltz right in here and break our laws. How many of these waifs are you going to shelter and feed? How many will you clothe? How many of the sick among them will you minister to? How many in prison will you visit?

Kevyn is a typical self-righteous intolerant liberal who never tires of trying to rub everyone's faces in their shortcomings. Thus, he ignores another biblical quote; don't call your neighbor's attention to the speck in his eye while ignoring the plank in your own.

You will notice he never responds.
