He needs the room for the muslims he wants to bring in to chop your heads off .
These “church people” should be jailed for violating our Immigration Laws!
EVERY one of these church-affiliated subversive political organizations should lose their non-profit status and should be taxed on every damned dollar they collect in donations, or in government contract money (which I bet is one very hefty sum for protecting illegal aliens.)
Wait. Isn’t it illegal to harbor a fugitive?

These people have no Biblical literacy whatsoever.
Mary and Joseph were NOT seeking refuge in Bethlehem.
1. Bethlehem was a part of Judea, so it was not a in foreign country. It was in fact the town of Joseph’s birth.
2. Joseph was required to go there by a decree issued from Caesar Augustus that all males should report to the towns of their birth to register for a tax.
In short, Joseph and Mary migrated to Bethlehem IN COMPLIANCE WITH the law, NOT IN DEFIANCE OF IT.
The young family did flee from the murderous Herod, when they learned of his intention to kill all the male children under two years old.
They fled to Egypt to avoid the existential threat posed by Herod. It was not against Egyptian law for Jews to enter and leave at will. No passport or visa was necessary.
Their sojourn in Egypt was TEMPORARY! After the death of Herod, they returned to Judea and settled in Nazareth.
I believe that harboring Illegals is a FELONY. Hopefully President Trump will start putting those people where they belong, IN JAIL.
A cool think about Trump, as opposed to most other candidates, is that he is VERY UNLIKELY to get rolled by church leaders in stunts like this - whereas Huckabee could almost be counted on to show up and try to protect those same, Illegal, churches.
Are those churches giving me sanctuary if I choose not to pay my taxes to support illegal immigrant?
This is all part of the plan. They have no real intention of deporting anyone. They want to try to gin up sob stories about “poor migrants” along with mobilizing groups to propagandize on behalf of fraudulently documented foreigners.
... then the minute that one leaves the sanctuary, they're scooped up and deported immediately. Let's see how long these churches can stand having hundreds .. if not thousands .. if illegals and their families crammed into their churches. Let them spend THEIR money to maintain them. Even if wealthy libs sponsor/pay for their upkeep, millions of dollars of lib money will be spent maintaining these leeches instead of going toward prog causes and support for the Dem candidates.
I'm not saying a total blockade. Let in all of the food and stuff that they want to send in, but nothing except citizens come out again without being deported ...
...alluding to the biblical Nativity story of Mary and Joseph seeking refuge before the birth of Jesus...
Not even similar. They were not illegal invaders. The government required everyone to go to their hometown for a census for tax purposes. They looked for a hotel room, but they were all sold out.
The "refuge" that Joseph and Mary sought was shelter from the weather. She needed someplace to give birth. They were not fleeing their government, they were complying with the law that required themm to register in Joeseph's home city.
these "Pastors" are leading their congregations in the wrong direction.
Oddly, this is the one form of sanctuary for illegal immigrants (or other law-breakers) to which I have no objection. It is a customary right as old as Christendom. If a church offers sanctuary to anyone then the church is obliged to provide sustenance for them and they are obliged to stay within the precincts of the church or the civil arm can arrest them and apply the law should they stray from the church grounds.
There would be very little illegal immigration to the U.S. with the exception of refugees whose status as such the Federal government is unwilling to recognize were the only way a person illegally in the U.S. could stay was invoking the ancient right of sanctuary.
A citizens committee could simply raid each of them and put the "protected" out on the street.
Yes, I said enter the church and remove the illegal with the minimum amount of force required.
OF COURSE legal authorities could do this as well. There is NO LAW which protects a congregation which harbors law breakers.
Some pastors are really naive morons.
