2nd Nephi 1:6 "Wherefore, I, Lehi, prophesy according to the workings of the Spirit which is in me, that there shall none come into this land save they shall be brought by the hand of the Lord."
Does this mean by deporting and persecuting them we are fighting God?

Read the Book of Mormon a little more and you'll find some admonitions to repent lest the Gentiles be torn apart by the descendants of Lehi. I don't think God will substitute immigration law for repentance.

Call me what you like. Grew up in Texas and visited a lot with the SoCal and New Mexico side of the family as well, some of whom still live on Land Grant ranches passed down from when they were given before the US was an independant nation.
Yep, at the ranch in ElPaso we would sit on the porch at the ranch house and watch them come across. Must have been a lot nicer then than having to sneak through the desert and past a bunch of wannabee commando types now.
And I know some Japs too as well as some Krauts..., and even a few Pollack jokes.

There was a real wall around West-Berlin. The German
Democratic Republic has built it. Officially.
I have seen it and its result as a whole.
Did You see it? Is there in US anybody who has a faintest idea about it?
Gramps could help me, IMHO.
(Was that GDR
democratic, republican or simply leftist?)
by the way, what does "democrat", "republican" means? I haven't a faintest idea about it. They must be something
speshul US thing.

I saw that wall. I was in the Deutsche Demokratische Republik in 1988. They told the East Germans the wall was for keeping the wrong people OUT...but of course, it was for keeping their people in.

Interestingly, the LDS Church is supportive of immigration and immigrants.

That wall is still there. Those crafty commies.

As I understand it the Nephites and Lamanites are to help construct the New Jerusalem. Therefore they have to be in Missouri and have the necessary skills to construct such a place.
I think we are seeing the beginning of the fulfillment of this prophecy.
