Those of us familiar with the term coyote since CHILDHOOD know that those who pretend to care about illegal immigration really don’t & are using this issue to bash THIS administration but blatantly ignore that most of the harmful exploitative evil acts come from across the border
To assume that all the various Latin American cultures operate on the same human dignity value system is immature at best & grossly naive, even by those who claim to be educated. The fix isn’t to bring them all to the US, as a “Christian missionary charity” effort to win souls.
If Christians really cared about the souls of L. Americans why not go to them & live amongst them: in poverty. Many won’t do that cuz that will cost too much (security/freedom). Its easier to encourage L. Americans to come here & break laws so they don’t have to give up anything.
Christians who use the Bible to encourage illegal immigration are actually closet prosperity gospel advancers who believe that living in the US is a type of promised land that should be guaranteed to all humanity & we shouldn’t have to give up that blessing to be missionaries.

With 1 mil followers on Twitter, Piper knows his words influence, even as he writes he’s not trying to do that. If Piper posted this after the election, it might have been more effective, but....
.....to use Greek & Scripture reference to attempt to shame Trump supporters for wanting to vote for an arrogant man in comparison to voting for an open racist long term politician who approves of baby murder under the term “reproductive health”. This feels like pastoral abuse.
Biden has been in politics 7 years longer than Piper has been in ministry yet he’s just now realizing Biden doesn’t live up to Christian morality or ethics and now he’s trying to bow out of the voting process by appealing to Scripture for the sake of Biblical integrity? What? 🤔
