1 Bible Verses About Immigration

And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.

Exodus 2:22KJV
Let these sacred words pierce the soul, not merely reside in the mind. The divine injunction concerning the sojourner is a profound call to see beyond flesh and circumstance, recognizing the inherent dignity woven by the Creator in every human being, regardless of their earthly origin. To welcome the stranger is not an optional beneficence but a necessary act of discipleship, a mirror reflecting our own journey as temporary residents on this earth, yearning for an eternal home. Let us contemplate deeply this duty of hospitality, for in attending to the needs of the immigrant, we attend, perhaps unknowingly, to the Lord Himself, fulfilling a fundamental mandate of Christ's kingdom: to love our neighbor as ourselves, especially when that neighbor stands at our gate, seeking refuge.
