with this scripture how do people view?

with this Scripture and teaching from the Apostle Paul how do people view the illegal immigrants who have fled to this country hoping for better lieves? "in all circumstances I have learned to be abased and I have learned to abound"

meaning to be content with our circumstances and wait on GOD ?

is it fair or accurate to say that the people immigrating illegally are not following the guidance and WISDOM of GOD ?

people who play the lottery or gamble or people who work two jobs, how far can we carry these words about being satisfied and waiting on the LORD to fulfill our needs?

    It's about time that the US does something for the US. We can't accept everyone into this country. If other countries have problems, I say they should just have a civil war and put their country together properly. The early Americans had to fight for our country and most of us today even after serving in the military, even by draft a dew years back have never been paid properly nor taken care of at all

    We pay too much in taxes and too many people come to the US and don't pay taxes, and they receive all sorts of aid while our own people in the millions go hungry. I want to help all people, but the situation is about the same as termites eating up the house.

    Paul, like Jesus taught people to put the Kingdom before material wealth.

    I don't think you can make blanket statements about how to apply this principle (in many countries for example perhaps working two jobs is necessary for basic needs).

    True Christians treat all people respectfully, but they are also politically neutral, as Jesus Christ and the first century Christians were.
