Well then I suppose thats a good example of why "Christian nationalism" and the whole idea of a Christian nation doesn't make sense. Every single citizen of the Kingdom that is not of this earth is responsible for following the instructions of the King. Meanwhile here in America there are always excuses why we can't heal the sick or feed the hungry.
That's only true if you believe it's the government's duty to take care people.
Oh you guys. If you come upon someone hurt, do you say to yourself "I must make sure this is a US citizen before I try to help." Do you check for ID and an insurance card before administering first aid or calling an ambulance?
If you are not religious, fine, it doesn't matter: be as cynical and xenophobic as you like.
Anyone who says they are Christian or advocates for a "Christian nation" should understand that the parable of the good Samaritan applies not only to individuals but Christians collectively.
Anyone who uses religious language to make themselves seem moral and righteous, but then says illegals don't deserve healthcare, that person is a hypocrite. Don't vote for them.

Eh, that parable is about how individuals are to behave, it doesn't apply to states. Also a true #Christian nationalist would be okay with if not in support of an apartheid state, with unbelievers being excoriated from society if not excluded from the country.

Ah yes. Unlike other politicians.
By heal the sick and feed the hungry, did you mean line the pockets of politicians?
