Evangelicals: Pray for Boehner on immigration reform
CNN ^ | 12/5/13 | Dan Merica

Posted on 12/06/2013 6:55:59 AM PST by jimbo123

A group of evangelicals in favor of passing immigration reform have a message for House Speaker John Boehner: "We're praying for you."

In new ads, Evangelical Immigration Table–group that has been behind immigration reform on Capitol Hill–asks people to pray for Boehner and House Republican leadership on immigration reform and urge those leaders to listen to their prayers.

The group says the ad will air on WTOP, a radio station in Washington, D.C., as well as 30 Christian radio stations in Texas and North Carolina. A Spanish-speaking iteration of the spot will also air in Southern California.

"Our immigration system is broken and it is hurting everyone," says Dub Karriker, senior pastor at the Christian Assembly Church in Durham, N.C. "Families are separated, employers can't find the workers they need, and the undocumented who want to get right with the law are told to get in a line that doesn't exist."

The ad continues: "More than ever, Speaker Boehner needs our prayers. Congress can pass a true conservative solution that will actually fix our immigration system...Please join me in praying for Speaker Boehner and House leadership that God will help them find an immigration solution that reflect biblical values."

The problem I see here is young adults here are not attracted to those college programs, they waste their college money on liberal arts degrees its the Indians and Asian immigrants who are attracted to those careers

Why is that?

Let me explain it. The problem is nobody wants to major in the hard scions only to be undercut by the H-1B visa indentured slaves.

You have it bass ackward. To correct the problem cease H-1B, wages will go up and viola, kids will major in the hard science again. I smell troll...

RE :”You have it bass ackward. To correct the problem cease H-1B, wages will go up and viola, kids will major in the hard science again. “

Wages for those jobs are fantastic here.
Yet I see many american kids here living with parents after getting useless degrees.
They work part time at idiot jobs
I ask them why they dont go for a real career like IT or engineering and they say ‘I dont like stuff like that”

Too much work and studying

Hell, the companies actually go to public schools HERE to convince American kids HERE to take up technical careers HERE in college.

Rush wont tell you that.

RE I smell troll... “

HAHAHA, did Rush tell you to say that?

“Evangelicals who are proselytizing for “social justice”, not Jesus Christ are a cult more dangerous than anything Jim Jones ever dreamed up.

Jones was content to force his own followers to drink the Kool-Aid, not everybody else.”

This is the truest statement I have read in a long time.

In fact, many believe that this “social justice” movement will one day be used by the false prophet talked about in Revelation to unite the religions of the world under some watered-down version of Christianity where it’s all about “feeding the poor” and taking wealth from the developed world to help 3rd world countries. During that time, it will be all about finding “common ground” with all religions and working together toward building a better world.

The true gospel and saving souls for eternity will no longer be on the agenda, and any bible-believing Christian that dares talk about such things will be ostracized (and perhaps even martyred). The leader of this false global religion (the false prophet) will also advocate for a one-world government to help enforce this redistribution scheme. This of course will bring about the rise of the anti-Christ.

When you look around at what’s happening out there, it appears that we may not be too far off from these things occurring.

Damn right. But read through the end of the book. It's not over until we win. Of course, the anti-Christ and his followers will make life miserable for all of us in the meantime.

I have been in IT and Software Development for 26 years, I have seen what the H-1B visa program has done to the American workforce. Did you watch the you tube I posted? What kind of H-1B troll are you?

You made up a figure of 90K as starting salary. Again post it or simply shut up.

I understand it must be frustating to work with immigrants who make much more than you but with hard work, studying and determination you could get a job like they get and move out of your parents house.

They need to “pray” for the middle-class. Because when it goes, the entire country is going with it.
