God Loves Nations: Immigration Through a Biblical Lens


Listen Later

As we see from Genesis to Revelation, God deeply loves the nations, and His overarching plan throughout history involves them. But how does that shape our understanding of immigration today? Join us as we explore the intricate relationship between nations and immigration, tackling the mass migration trends shaping our present moment and the foundations behind God’s heart to bless the nations.

We examine God’s promise to Abraham in Genesis 12 as a springboard for the discussion, “and all nations on earth will be blessed through you,” pointing out the parallels to the Great Commission entrusted to each of us in the New Testament. Looking at the historical contrast between nations and empires, we ask: Should Christians support deportation? How do we balance love for immigrants with the responsibility to maintain order? In a culture that often conflates compassion with open borders, we explore what it means to uphold both biblical justice and mercy.

Through Scripture, history, personal anecdotes, and practical insights, we encourage listeners to thoughtfully engage with immigration in a way that blesses their nation and honors God’s design.

Main Topics:

  • God’s Heart for the Nations – How Scripture frames our understanding of national identity and immigration.
  • Babel, Globalization, and Borders – What the Bible teaches about the integrity of nations.
  • Justice, Mercy, and Order – A balanced and nuanced Christian approach to immigration policy.
