I agree, ColtsFan… I don’t want a candidate who has to announce that he is a Christian, and especially one who makes that a selling point. And when you get pols like Huckabee and others who claim that we need to support illegal immigration because of our faith, I could scream.

Laura,

As a fellow evangelical Christian, it bothers me that the Church does not view illegal immigration as a serious threat to our country.

But it bothers me even more when the Church does not embrace the Biblical teaching of the 2-Kingdom view, and instead chooses a candidate who reads an occasional Scripture verse or two.

The Church has lost the Biblical distinction between the functions of the State (Romans 13—punishing evil, “sword” , punish lawlessness) and the Church. (individual level–preaching and teaching sound doctrine, showing compassion to others, accountability in our relationships, etc)

Christian voters do not realize that lawlessness is in the center of illegal immigration.

Since they don’t pay income taxes and never have, maybe they can be an appointee of the Obama administration? Treasury is still woefully short on appointees.

I don’t think we’re going to suffer a shortage of government employees anytime soon, especially at entry level. We’ll suffer a shortage of good, principled ones, though.

Presumably ICE agents have some respect for American law. How long before there’s a shortage of agents at ICE?
