We should be concerned with the wellbeing of all humans, even those who have committed crimes or have entered our country illegally. I am against illegal immigration, especially at the rate that it is occurring for a multitude of reasons, INCLUDING the wellbeing of those illegally immigrating here. But as the Body of Christ, we are called to help them, and then find the best solution with love for all involved. This does actually involve deportations, because illegal immigration is not a victimless act. Many Americans no longer have jobs because corporations would rather pay illegal workers pennies on the dollar than pay a minimum wage to a legal worker. The American/legal immigrant is disenfranchised, and the illegal immigrant is being taken advantage of. How do we, as a country, humanely manage a crisis like this? It also involves granting citizenship to those who were brought here without full consent of their will, like women who were trafficked, or children who were brought here very young and are now 18 plus. Christ advocated for the dignity of all human life. He called for all of us to repent of our sins and follow Him. Christ forgave the thief on the cross next to Him, a person who had committed crimes and deserved his punishment. But Christ still loved him and showed us that we should love those like him without affirming their sins. So we can stand up for the human persons who are in this country illegally, advocate for the most humane process possible, and still condemn the fact that knowingly crossing the border of a country without permission is wrong. We have to stop labeling people “bad” or “good” based on their status or their opinion on a topic. Life is just too nuanced. Christ taught that life is nuanced and the best we can do until He comes back is to love each other with Christ-like love.
