Evangelicals: Pray for Boehner on immigration reform
CNN ^ | 12/5/13 | Dan Merica

Posted on 12/06/2013 6:55:59 AM PST by jimbo123

A group of evangelicals in favor of passing immigration reform have a message for House Speaker John Boehner: "We're praying for you."

In new ads, Evangelical Immigration Table–group that has been behind immigration reform on Capitol Hill–asks people to pray for Boehner and House Republican leadership on immigration reform and urge those leaders to listen to their prayers.

The group says the ad will air on WTOP, a radio station in Washington, D.C., as well as 30 Christian radio stations in Texas and North Carolina. A Spanish-speaking iteration of the spot will also air in Southern California.

"Our immigration system is broken and it is hurting everyone," says Dub Karriker, senior pastor at the Christian Assembly Church in Durham, N.C. "Families are separated, employers can't find the workers they need, and the undocumented who want to get right with the law are told to get in a line that doesn't exist."

The ad continues: "More than ever, Speaker Boehner needs our prayers. Congress can pass a true conservative solution that will actually fix our immigration system...Please join me in praying for Speaker Boehner and House leadership that God will help them find an immigration solution that reflect biblical values."

“Damn right. But read through the end of the book. It’s not over until we win.”

Yes — praise God! We DO win in the end. Without this truth, there are many days when it would feel very hopeless.

I might pray, but it won’t be what they want it to be. More like: “Please replace John Boehner with an real American Republican as Speaker of the House. Amen.”

Wages for those jobs are fantastic here. Yet I see many american kids here living with parents after getting useless degrees.

In 1990, Software Engineers made 60,000. Today they make 75,000. There is no evidence of a dearth of candidates. Why is it that half of all Stem graduates are unemployed.

You are either a victim of crony corporatist propoganda or a liar.

Boneher will do what his church tells him to do. He obviously is for universal healthcare, why would he depart his routine now.

Your buddy pinged me with this not far from me

http://jobview.monster.com/Developer-HTML-Job-Arlington-VA-127775685.aspx

The salary looks like $120K for only a few years of experience, the right experience.

I know kids here with useless degrees here unemployed, or working some hourly job.

Well, God does, you'd think. But we?

In the film, "A Man for All Seasons" the martyrdom of Sir Thomas More is given parallels the death of Socrates. Socrates says, who of us goes the the better lot is known only to God. More, in contrast, says to the executioner, be confident to carry out your task, you send me to a better place. Ora et labora.

Soros taking advantage of the fact that the general press will take this at face value, owing to the reality that 98% ofthe people in media are, when it comes to religion, profoundly ignorant.

Employers can't find the workers they need??

Put the welfare class to work if employers can't find workers. There are millions of Obama supporters that could take these jobs. Send the illegals home.
