To be honest I struggle with this. Helping others to the point that you allow millions of foreigners inside the country seems extreme. You are basically allowing your population to be replaced with horrible results so far. On the other-hand you are helping people that don't have a good life.
I'd say there's a difference between helping people, and "you HAVE to let in every single person into the country, even if they are a criminal, so they can get free money from the government"
I would be lying if I said I was ok with millions of people getting in the country even if we could vet them to be good. Getting replace both ethnically and culturally and watching identity politics in action has not been the best experience.
Not sure if that is against the Bible :(
Most passages in the Bible on this topic which refer to "[your] neighbor", refer to people(s) that you share at least some commonality with, such as nationality, cultural history, ethnicity, profession, etc. In context with Scripture, this translates to Jew helping Jew.
The Muslims and Central/Western Africans coming in by the millions not only have 0 in common with us, the Muslims in particular actively seek to destroy us as demanded by their holy book, The Quran, whether it be by the sword, or by outbreeding us with their polygamy practices (up to 4 wives per man starting VERY young).
Not a Christian or Biblical scholar myself, but I'm pretty sure charity doesn't extend to helping others at the expense of the safety of those you should be protecting such as your family and community. Allowing millions of immigrants a year into western countries is having severely detrimental effects on those who least deserve it.
