Citizenship for Dreamers? Not According to the Bible

“The stranger! The stranger! We must be kind to the stranger!” This is the cry of many Evangelical church leaders as Congress and President Trump discuss what to do about the political landmine that the Obama administration deliberately created through the unconstitutional Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

The Old Testament provides ample information on God’s standards for attaining citizenship, yet many church leaders seem eager to misdirect the American people with calls to the biblical rules of hospitality. This is equivalent to handing the keys to the kingdom to a foreign invader and telling the people that you are simply making the invaders a sandwich.

God’s standards for foreigners to attain citizenship are outlined in Deuteronomy 23. Anyone whose delicate sensibilities were offended when President Trump suggested that immigrants from Sweden and Haiti have some major differences will note that God applies very different citizenship standards between various nations in verses 3 and 7.

To become a citizen means that one enters into political power and has a say in the future of their host nation. For Israel, the church and civil government were one and the same. To “enter into the congregation of the Lord” for an Egyptian or a Moabite was to attain the full rights of citizenship in ancient Israel.

In modern-day America, citizenship and entering into power means attaining the privilege of voting (and, to a lesser extent, to legally obtain a job that would otherwise be available for an American).

Make no mistake about it: The debate over what to do with former president Obama’s so-called “Dreamers” is a debate over who shall have political power in this country. Do the American people get to decide who immigrates here and obtains citizenship — and thus, political power — or do the elites who are pushing for a borderless one world government get to determine our nation’s destiny.

Edomite and Egyptian immigrants to Israel could not attain direct citizenship. Their families had to demonstrate three generations of faithfulness and obedience to Israel’s laws before they could enter into the congregation. Ammonites and Moabites had to wait ten generations. Bastards and eunuchs could never attain citizenship, which may sound harsh but was in fact a sensible standard that protected unity of the nuclear family. Only those with legitimate children had a stake in the future of Israel.

What should America do with the Dreamers? Most Americans do not realize that all of the people who signed up for Obama’s illegal protective action are over the age of 31. No vetting of the illegal immigrants was done. According to staffers at US Customs and Immigration Services (USCIS), they were instructed to take every alien at their word when they claimed that their parents brought them here as children. The former head of the USCIS fraud investigation unit says that as many as 50 percent of all DACA signups are fraudulent; illegal immigrants saw their chance at amnesty from the Obama administration and they jumped at it.

USCIS tellingly didn’t publish numbers on the DACA program for the first five years of its existence. It was only after the Trump administration was sworn in that we finally learned that DACA recipients included illegal immigrants from Russia, Mongolia, Pakistan, India, Ireland, Poland, Nigeria, China… the list includes some 200 countries. People from all over the world signed up. Half are frauds and there is no discussion of vetting them to determine whether they actually came here “through no fault of their own.”

America was fundamentally changed in the years after every previous great wave of immigration, because political power was often handed to the first generation to arrive. Public schools with compulsory attendance would have been unimaginable to the likes of George Washington, who was schooled at home and then at a trade school until age 14, before becoming independently wealthy by age 17. The great wave of immigrants in the late 19th century led up to the creation of the federal income tax, Prohibition and even Karl Marx’s great central bank with a monopoly on currency, the Federal Reserve.

What will happen to future generations if we continue to hand political power to “the stranger?”

For the Democrats who are pushing full amnesty, citizenship and chain migration, their motives are perfectly clear; they are simply trying to solidify their political power for the next ten generations. No matter what Congress and President Trump decide to do about the illegal Dreamer program, the political power of citizenship must not be a part of the package.
