When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.
—- Leviticus 19:33-34
The Reverend Robert J. Jeffres, Jr., Senior Pastor of the First Baptist church of Dallas, texas (a government-chartered, 501(c)3 non-profit corporation as opposed to a new testament Church, having retained its First Amendment Freedoms of Religion, Speech and Assembly), says on the Fox News Network show Fox & Friends, “The Bible … says that God is the one who established nations and its borders. God is not necessarily an open borders guy, as a lot of people would think that He is.”
Question: What was Jeffres’ scriptural citation to support his position?
