ALIENS AMONG US



ALIENS AMONG US
(Based on Eze. 22:29 & I Pet. 2:11)

There are aliens on our planet,
I have proof that they exist.
Some even walk among us.
It’s true; it’s a fact; I insist.

They may or may not look like us;
Their speech is not the same.
This is not their homeland;
Who knows why they came.

But God instructed long ago:
Don’t mistreat the alien.
His Word tells us to love them;
In fact, some may be kin.

They’re not from another planet,
But they are from another land.
We should be ready to welcome them,
And lend them a helping hand.

This isn’t our home, either,
For Christians are aliens, too;
Think before you alien-ate,
Christ may do the same unto you.

Note: I don't believe we should mistreat anyone who is different than us in any way. I also know we are instructed in the Bible to obey the laws and to respect authorities. Illegal aliens are not in obedience to God's law or our nation's laws.

Romans 13 :1-5
Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.

The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), specifically Title 8, United States Code, outlines the legal status of "aliens" and defines those who are not citizens and do not have legal immigration status as being "illegal." It includes provisions related to inadmissibility, deportability, and offenses related to unlawful entry or harboring of aliens. The term "alien" is defined as anyone who is not a citizen or national of the United States. (copied)
