Message to Arizona from the Holy Bible

Message to Arizona from the Holy Bible

“You are to love those who are aliens, for you yourselves were aliens in Egypt.” (Deuteronomy 10:19)

“You shall not wrong or oppress a resident alien.” (Exodus 22:21).

“The alien who resides among you shall be to you as the citizen among you.” (Leviticus 19:34)

“Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers.” (Hebrews 13:2)

“Love your neighbor as yourself.” (Leviticus 19; Matthew 5,19, 22; Mark 12; Luke 10; Romans 13; James 2)

I don’t see a requirement that the alien referred to in these verses must be “legal”. How do those who hold fast to Leviticus as justification for marginalizing our GLBT brothers and sisters justify turning a blind eye to the Bible when dealing with aliens?
