TODAY’S SERMON
SERMON SERIES: Radical Hospitality
TITLE: God’s Heart for Immigrants
TEXT: Leviticus 19:9-10 & 33-34
SPEAKER: Pastor Dan Turner

Throughout the Old Testament, God demonstrated that he wanted his people to love and care for the immigrants living among them. God asked his people to give them provision, justice and care. Deuteronomy 10:18 even says that God loves the foreigners living in Israel. This week we look at God’s concern for those who are most vulnerable among us and ask the question concerning what we should do to show the radical hospitality that reflects the heart of God.

SERMON NOTES

We Love and Care for Immigrants Because…

God Loves Immigrants

He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing. And you are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt. Deuteronomy 10:17-19

We Remember our own History

“‘When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. 34 The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 19: 33-34

We Follow in Obedience to God

“‘When you reap the harvest of your land, do not reap to the very edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Do not go over your vineyard a second time or pick up the grapes that have fallen. Leave them for the poor and the foreigner. I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 19:9-10

Because God is at Work in Immigrants
