Hebrews 13:5-6
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,
Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.
So we say with confidence,
The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?
This is Viviana Marín, a political activist from Colombia 🇨🇴. Shortly after @ABDELAESPRIELLA was elected President last June, she publicly exhorted the Colombian people to take to the streets to make the country “unlivable” under the new government. While she is certainly entitled to her political views, she is not entitled to enter the US. We do not welcome those who pursue political opposition through violence or intimidation. Accordingly, the @StateDept under @SecRubio has revoked her visa.
Hebrews 12:12-13
12 Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. 13 “Make level paths for your feet,”[a] so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.
Hebrews 12:1
12 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,
People in the US and all over the world are fed up with bogus asylum claims. Asylum isn’t supposed to be a loophole to circumvent immigration laws; rather, it’s supposed to provide a narrow safe harbor for persons persecuted because of their “race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.” 8 U.S.C. §1101(a)(42). But the system has long been swamped by frivolous asylum claims, meaning that it takes years to adjudicate whether applicants are actually entitled to asylum—during which time they can typically work, have children, and otherwise put down roots in our country.
A recent case highlights such abuse. Humberto “Beto” Coral (@betocoralg) came to the US from Colombia on a tourist visa in December 2015. A few months later, shortly before his lawful stay was set to expire, he applied for asylum. Coral himself has publicly claimed that he applied for asylum as a victim of “war and impunity” in Colombia (although one may wonder what that has to do with official persecution on account of his “race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion”). Be that as it may, in the waning days of the Obama Administration he received a work permit, which he continued to renew for a DECADE. During that time, he championed Colombia’s far-left then-President @petrogustavo, ran unsuccessfully for a seat in Colombia’s Congress on a pro-government platform, made defamatory comments about a former Colombian President that he was forced to retract, and tried to wage lawfare in our system against then-candidate for President (now President) @ABDELAESPRIELLA. Meanwhile, he denounced the alleged “persecution” of Hispanics in the US; whether US citizens, lawful residents, asylum seekers, or illegal aliens, he claimed, all are being “hunted and enclosed in concentration camps,” and “tortured and assassinated by the government of the United States.” Talk about an Alice-in-Wonderland scenario: while seeking asylum IN our country FROM Colombia, he was accusing our government of putting people in concentration camps and shilling for Colombia's far-left government. Not surprisingly, @SecRubio determined that he should be deported back to Colombia, where he was given a hero's greeting on the tarmac by the then-Foreign Minister and met with the then-President. True to form, he now alleges that he was “tortured” while detained as a “political prisoner” in the US--and, for good measure, challenges the legitimacy of the recent Colombian election where the pro-government party lost, calling failed candidate @IvanCepedaCast “my legitimate President.” If this isn't a perfect example of the dysfunction and abuse of our asylum system, I don't know what is.
Hebrews 11:6
6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
If the world is against the truth, then I am against the world. Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord! I’d rather be cancelled by society than rejected by Christ

Hebrews 5:7
7 During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.
The Spanish government denied overflight permission to the plane flying Israeli rescuers to Columbia to provide humanitarian help and rescue services after the recent earthquake. Following their arrival they rescued from the rubble of a building a 3 year old girl buried for 5 days. The scandal ridden, incompetent Spanish socialist government, Ireland’s primary EU ally in demonising Israel, deserves no credibility when it pretends dedication to human rights.
