What Christian does not know that after Jesus’s birth an Angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Arise, & take the babe and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be there til I bring thee worde: for Herode will seke the babe, to destroye him”? So Joseph arose and took the babe and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt, and they were there until the death of Herode.
Jesus’s life valorizes migration. It is the model all Christians are called to follow.
Yet, today, we see Christian Americans attack migrants, accuse them of the crime of migration, denigrate migrants as rapists and murderers, sick their dogs on them, round them up, jail them, and deport them.
Is this what Easter means in America?
Christian Nationalism is what the white supremacists do on Sundays.
