The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born

Stretch said:
They cherry pick and politicize the Bible only to suit THEIR needs; nothing in context; they want nothing of the ENTIRE Word of God;
they just use God and weaponize Him when they need to shoot political bullets.
Two posts later they're back to lying, taunting and calling people names.

When you write stuff like this about liberals you are bearing false witness.

The very one. It's what a couple of these Forum false religionists remind me of. Weaponizing religion at their convenience for political points.

Matthew Henry taught that the prohibition against false witness concerns our own and our neighbor's good name. “Thou shalt not bear false witness” forbids: “1. Speaking falsely in any matter, lying, equivocating, and any way devising and designing to deceive our neighbor. 2. Speaking unjustly against our neighbor, to the prejudice of his reputation; and (which involves the guilty of both). 3. Bearing false witness against him, laying to his charge things that he knows not, either judicially, upon oath (by which the third commandment, and the sixth and eighth, as well as this, are broken), or extrajudicially, in common converse, slandering, backbiting, tale-bearing, aggravating what is done amiss and making it worse than it is, and any way endeavoring to raise our own reputation upon the ruin of our neighbor’s."

Don't you just love it when a JPP liberal makes another stupid comment and then when someone replies to the stupidity, they immediately try to steal the "triggered" comment (which was coined to describe liberal snowflakes needing a safe place) and try to use it against the one responding.

They're involved in so much personal projection, that they're blind to it.

There ya go. If we're to treat all foreigners as native-born, then they also must obey the same laws as the native-born.
If a native-born breaks the law he gets punished. Therefore, so must all foreigners.
That's it in a nutshell. So simple.

Who is saying they shouldn't be punished for breaking the laws?

As I wrote earlier this month, attacks on conservative Christians are certainly popular in some quarters of the Left, but now I also fear they’re populist — they can help animate a mass movement.

The combination of ignorance, fear, and hatred wielded against conservative Christians in progressive quarters is disturbing.
Just in this new year, we’ve seen two progressive senators aggressively question a Christian judicial nominee because of his membership in a mainstream Catholic service organization, we’ve seen a days-long attack on Karen Pence for teaching part-time at a Christian ministry, and we watched a stunning online feeding frenzy against students at a Catholic boys’ school based on a misleadingly clipped video segment of a much longer confrontation.

Moreover, we just concluded a Supreme Court term in which progressive governments attempted to erode the constitutional firewall against compelled speech by attempting to compel Christians to advance messages they found immoral.
California attempted to compel pro-life pregnancy centers to advertise free or low-cost abortions.
Colorado attempted to compel a man to custom-design a cake for a gay wedding.

And along with each of these events we’ve seen tens of thousands of words of commentary declaring Christians bigoted and hateful — often based on condescending claims of hypocrisy premised on sheer ignorance of Christian theology and tradition.

Who can forget the avatar of progressive populism himself, Bernie Sanders, in 2017 aggressively grilling a nominee for the Office of Management and Budget over his theological views on the differences between the Christian and Muslim faith?
He actually said that the nominee was “not someone who this country is supposed to be about.”
And of course Dianne Feinstein famously rebuked Trump judicial nominee Amy Coney Barrett by declaring that the “dogma lives loudly within you, and that’s a concern.”

The phoniness comes from mainly non-believers who start threads on, or interject into threads Scriptures as if they
know what they're talking about and judge the believers for not seeing it their way. Ninety-nine times out of a
hundred they begin the religious conversations which of course only stirs up strife. When we speak in replies,
we're called out as the ones at fault which the unbelievers use as an open door to further chastise, criticize, and
judge us. Satan is the accuser of the brethren.

"Then I heard a loud voice shouting across the heavens, “It has come at last— salvation and power and the Kingdom of our God,
and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers and sisters has been thrown down to earth— the one
who accuses them before our God day and night."
Rev. 12:10

As you said, "This we already new and comprehended....I am just pointing out the truth of your FALSE PREMISE. Christians are not to defend the LAWLESS....like those who break our laws concerning our national sovereignty....Christians are commanded to obey the law of the land in which they reside.

Why do leftists defend...LAWLESSNESS?

I am not going to compare asylum-seeker detainment centers to GULAG forced labor camps.

But there is a long public record on this board and in the broader wingnutosphere, where Trump-boot lickers have gone out of their way to dehumanize these asylum seekers.

I would say there are about two billion posts on this board from conservatives making reference to "invasions of brown people" from the south. Calling them "illegal aliens". Dehumanizing them and painting them in the worst possible light at every chance.

And you know what that is remarkably similar to? That's right - it is similar to the rhetoric, the language, the dehumanization tactics of Nazi-supporters of the 1930s.

And you have never seen me defend such posts and I have "groaned" or responded negatively to them. But rhetoric on message boards does not equate to actual treatment of detainees in situations where the numbers overwhelm the facilities available to hold them.

Political rhetoric does not equate to Nazi supporters. If so, then those threads (current and past) that are thrilled about public disasters in the South because they are going to wipe out Trump supporters is equally as dehumanizing and similar to those same tactics of Nazi supporters for wanting those with political differences to die.

For some of those same posters who scoff at religion but then use the Bible to tell us how to treat "foreigners" while hoping Southerners will die is the worst kind of hypocrisy and shows disdain for their fellow humans while preaching we should love them.

there is an outright hostility from many on the left to religion - and Xtians in particular.
And I don't mean on obscure messageboards but expressed in lawsuits like the one we just had with that Big Cross.
It was 80 years old an a remembrance - and the leftists still couldn't accept it being there.

There are more examples, but religious intolerance exists -especially from the left on Xtians

Why do you think it was lefties who didn't want the big cross, rather than simply people who think church and state should be separate?

Then let government stay out of the church's business. That what the founders were
getting away from.....religion dictated by the rulers...most particular The Church of England
where a King would be head of the church and order the citizens to only belong to THAT church.

Yes, the Nazi and Slavers started slowly as well and always justified their treatment of their fellow human by dehumanizing them.

Giving asylum (26,000) and refugee (53,000) status to thousands annually and providing them benefits and resettlement assistance is quite the opposite from slavers and Nazis who were trying to enslave or exterminate rather than save and assist.

Which slavers "started slowly"?
