Pastor Dan Peterson: "The Bible contains dozens and dozens of passages regarding the treatment of the resident alien, the immigrant, the stranger in our midst. The Bible, in short, is pro immigrant. It was written by immigrants to immigrants and for immigrants. Whenever someone who speaks in the name of the faith does not elevate the vulnerable, the widow, the orphan, the poor, and yes, the resident alien, they are not speaking the word of God." With First Reading, Jeremiah 23:23-29
