Romans 13 verses 1,2. "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment upon themselves."
So whoever comes into the country illegally is going against God. In a authoritarian sense.
I could go into depth about the Tower of Babel and all that as well but I’m not. Basically God gave us different nations and borders for a reason. We should still be open to helping and accepting immigrants as long as they obey the law of the land (legal immigration).
I will say I believe there’s a difference between a immigrant and a refugee, and a refugee should be helped regardless.

Unfortunately, the difference between 'immigrant' and 'refugee' has been so blurred that it's impossible to discern these days. According to the media, all of the hordes at the southern border are refugees (from poverty, civil wars, etc.) as are the hordes invading Europe from Africa.
So no, it's not as simple as that anymore.
