Article: Time for a Caravan of Truth -- Stop Building Walls Around Our Faith

Yeah that is not accurate. The hearing takes weeks, so the families will still need to be detained. Then to have the hutzpah to act as if he just wants to spare the families from the godless policy he supports of separating them to begin with is simply beyond the pale. Don't fall for the scare tactics either beloved. These people are not fleeing their homeland to come start gangs in the US. Grudem concludes:

"Walls that already work:In fact, we already have a highly effective system of "border walls" that nobody argues about--in our airports. Every time I return to the U.S. from a foreign country, I have to go through customs at the airport, and so does everybody else. The room where people wait in line to see a customs officer has walls to make sure that all arriving passengers have to go through passport control. Yet demanding "no passport controls at airports" is, it seems to me, exactly parallel to saying that we should not build a wall on our southern border. Why should airports be any different from other border entry points? Yes, we are a nation of immigrants, and we should eagerly welcome numerous immigrants into the U.S. every year, but they must come in legally, through the gates in the wall, not illegally and dangerously across an open desert." -- Wayne Grudem

Desperation on the cusp of madness and not worth the dignity of a response. The false narrative he has been setting up is that if you are not for building this ridiculous wall that somehow the "other" is going to invade. I do not want to get bogged down in the political morass that Wayne Grudem traffics in. My concern is what we do as Christians and if you read the Gospel of Jesus Christ and think He would somehow send home the needy and ask them to please apply legally then you are simply not comprehending His message. Do we even care anymore how we look to people on the outside of salvation? That we would mangle the Word of God to support our xenophobia and idol worship of carnal politics? That we would seek to build a great big impenetrable wall around our faith, devoid of compassion, and call it Christian. God help us.
