Today in the United States, millions of men, women, and children
are considered 'illegal aliens' under federal law. While the
presence of these migrants runs against the law, many arrive in
response to US demand for cheap labor and stay to contribute to
community life. This book asks where migrants stand within God's
world and how authorities can govern immigration with Christian
ethics. The author tracks the emergence of the concept of the
illegal alien in federal US law while exploring Christian ways of
understanding belonging, government, and relationships with
neighbors. This is a thought-provoking book that provides a fresh
response to the difficult issue of illegal immigration in the
United States through the context of Christian theology.
This volume uncovers Barth's and Bonhoeffer's influences on one
another and reads them side-by-side, revealing the insights both
theologians bring to today's secular and religious context. Greggs
addresses the meaning and the extent of salvation, God's relation
to time and eternity, sin and confession, and inter-faith dialogue
for a church that critiques its own practice of religion. This is a
lively exploration of the implications of two great theologians'
work for a completely secular and religious world.
