Matthew 25:36 I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.

Deuteronomy 10:19 You shall also love the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.

Deuteronomy 27:19 Cursed is anyone who withholds justice from the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow

Psalms 146: 9 The Lord watches over the strangers; he upholds the orphan and the widow...

It's pretty damn clear on the subject.

Funny, I was raised protestant evangelical. Dropped all that in early adulthood. but a few times on a few subjects, I find myself in agreement with the Roman Catholics of all people, and most definitely NOT with the religion of my upbringing. I was raised to believe Catholics were all popish heretics. The infamous whore of Babylon from The Revelation, with the Pope as Antichrist. Been that way since Luther, Calvin and Knox and never changed in fundy Protestantism. Such irony!
