Let me ask you something, Christopher. How does supporting one group of people and making them a protected class insulated from legal accountability serve the “common good“ that bishops love to talk about so much?
Many of those who opposed Pope Francis and say they follow Jesus forget that he didn't ask the strangers and outcasts that he walked and talked with if they were "legal" or if they obeyed the Law of the Torah or even the law of the Romans. He just did what he came to do, teach everyone what God expected of them: love, serve, forgive, include, and provide justice. The prophet Hosea, speaking for God said "For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings" (Hosea 6:6). Jesus said "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 7:21). I guess those "traditional Catholics"focus on their own needs and desires for security and ignore the commands of Jesus. “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ Mt 25:40 Also those Catholics need to read the Old Testament to learn about the requirement of welcoming strangers.The Old Testament commands welcoming strangers by urging Israelites to treat foreigners with love and justice, emphasizing that they themselves were once strangers in Egypt (Leviticus 19:33-34). Verses like Deuteronomy 10:18-19 and Zechariah 7:9-10 highlight God's care for the vulnerable and call for compassion towards the alien, orphan, and widow, while Deuteronomy 27:19 pronounces a curse on those who deny them justice. Example:Leviticus 19:33–34: "When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God". Perhaps Mr. Rubio wept because he realized that his actions were not reflecting his Catholic Faith.
He is a lost person.
He has lost his way.
Secretary, of State, seems, kind, of strange, to, me,agree, with, you, though!
