It was Nitehawk. But I made the same assumption you did!

I don't have a problem with being wrongfully accused. I am not insecure in my identity.

I use the same laws. We fill out I-9s at work. It is the applicant's job to prove citizenship. There are plenty of ways to come to America legally. If they are a Christian, I am sure God has a calling for them where they can serve legally. There are actually immigration firms that help missionaries. I use an American company that helps with bringing people here to work.

What if these "Illegals" are jsut poor laborers, unskilled? The question still remains, what are we to do with the illegals that come into our churches, recieve the Holy Ghost, live a holy life, and the only thing wrong is that 10-15 years ago they came into the country illegally!

What do we do?

Re: Your answer to illegal immigration.

Would any one of us look down into the eyes of a hungry family and deny them food? Would we look into the face of a child and call them an invader?

Big picture, it is easy to say kill em all.

Down to personal level I hope we are better than that.

We worship with them..We started another Spanish church this year.

It is not our duty to scrutinize people in regard to the finances

Their health or their citizenship.

Ceaser hasn't benefitted us very much beyond a good caesar salad.

And if you ask me, the salad is seriously over-rated
