- As Americans look at the enormous achievements and what was left behind by those who came before, they must also think about what they will leave behind for those who will come after, as the world is a resource given by God to Man that ultimately requires wisdom, which is the guide for proper utilization of the resources given by God to man. God’s help should be sought after first and foremost in tumultuous times and a guide to the future is seen through the lens of the past, as this is a timeframe which acts as a guiding light, as the lessons of the past can dictate the reactions of the present, thereby having a positive impact upon the future. And because of this defining fact the past should be studied in-depth and laid side by side with the present with circumstances and situations aligned and parallels recognized, in an effort to make correct decisions based upon correct or incorrect decisions of the past in similar circumstances and situations…which may not give the exact answer to ending the current circumstance and situation, but it can definitely be utilized as a tool for guiding purposes. It is time for the United States of America to look at the past in order to make correct decisions for its present and future and history shows that Europeans arrived as immigrants in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries when Native Americans already inhabited this land which is known today as the United States of America. And descendants of those immigrants exist in the United States of America today, and as a result Congress should examine this and take this into consideration when addressing comprehensive immigration reform.
- Deuteronomy 14:29 reads as follows: "And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest."
- The word "stranger" in 21st century language is defined as "undocumented immigrant." And strangers were provided for by God under his law given through Moses to the Israelites.
