I Was a Stranger, and Ye Deported Me

The Biblical Case for Defying America's Immigration Laws

By: Jack Nipps

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

American Christians face an impossible choice: obey God's commands about strangers, or obey immigration laws that directly violate those commands.

Most have chosen a third option—claiming that Romans 13 requires submission to government, allowing them to support oppressive immigration laws while maintaining their Christian identity.

This book proves that third option is a lie.

Through rigorous biblical exegesis and unflinching examination of actual immigration law, I Was a Stranger, and Ye Deported Me demonstrates that America's immigration policies don't merely fall short of biblical ideals—they directly command what God forbids and forbid what God commands.

This isn't another call for Christians to be "nicer" to immigrants while maintaining support for enforcement. This is a systematic biblical argument that current immigration laws are so fundamentally unjust that Christians must actively resist and, if necessary, defy them.

You will not agree with everything in this book. It will challenge deeply held convictions about patriotism, law and order, and the relationship between faith and politics. It will force you to choose between political allegiance and biblical obedience. But if you take Scripture seriously—if you believe God's commands actually bind your conscience—you cannot ignore the argument put forward in this book.
