    Biblical Treatment of Immigrants

    Politicians have long played with the immigration issue. They often switch "sides" depending on public opinion. There are many types of immigrants and when discussing them, politicians often blur the distinctions in an effort to gain more support. That practice is so common, that many people posting memes about immigrants on social media do not even understand the issue enough to hold an opinion, much less be posting memes on social media. The two groups of immigrants that concern most people are 1. Undocumented workers and 2. Asylum seekers. Undocumented workers are often labeled "illegals" because they are working without legal permission. Asylum seekers are often labeled refugees because they flee their home country for their safety. It is not illegal for asylum seekers to enter the country without documents as long as they are seeking asylum. They do not have to use a port of entry. That means they can swim across the Rio Grande river or come to one of our sea shores in some sort of raft or boat. There are many other types of immigrants that I will not take the time to dive into here. Immigrants fill our churches. While white-American church attendance has been decreasing for years, immigrant churches have been starting all over the country. It is common to find Spanish-speaking churches, Filipino churches, Haitian churches, Korean churches and those of other immigrant groups. Here I post a video from a friend of mine who is also a Seventh-day Adventist pastor.

    Here's your (not so) totally useless fact(s) of the day:

    The smell of freshly cut grass is actually a distress signal released by the grass, alerting other plants to the damage. Today is: National Dog Mom’s Day National Frog Jumping Day James
