Good one. Here is another one for you, re this thread and the travel ban/adoption issue ... (and let me be very clear, I do believe in God and Jesus and I do what is right, to the best of my mortal self ability)
* Romans 13:1-7: Let every person be subject to the governing authorities.
And another one-but keep in mind "“sojourn” means "temporary stay"-so as a visitor.
*Leviticus 19:33-34: “When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself...
And these:
(Deut. 23:3; 24:14-21; 25:5; 26:10-13).”6 This Bible dictionary defines “two classes of aliens: 1) those who were temporary visitors, who owned no landed property; and 2) those who held permanent residence without becoming citizens (Lev. 22:10; Ps. 19:12).
