'God's Army' protesters rally in Texas against migrant crossings

By Agence France-Presse
Published February 4, 2024 8:08 AM ET

In trucks, vans and RVs, hundreds of people converged Saturday in southern Texas to rally against what they say is a migrant "invasion" and to demand tough new controls at the US border with Mexico.

Scrawled on the side of one of the vehicles reaching Quemado -- population 162 -- were the words "Join the God Fight."

The convoy gathered in the tiny town along the Rio Grande river, which forms the natural border between the United States and Mexico, as debate swirls again about how to address record high migrant crossings.

Within the New Testament, which Christians read in continuity with the Hebrew Bible or “The Old Testament,” the most often cited passage dealing with welcoming the stranger is from Matthew 25: 31-40. “I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” And the very reason, according to the Bible, that Jesus was born in a stable in Bethlehem is because Joseph and Mary were strangers in a foreign land and had no home there.
