You may have heard or read about Stephen Colbert calling out Christians for not wanting to host Syrian refugees. 

The Late Show host used Scriptures to make his point: 

“If you want to know if somebody’s a Christian, just ask them to complete this sentence: ‘Jesus said: I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you….’ And if they don’t say ‘welcomed me in,’ then they are either a terrorist or they’re running for president.” 

But Colbert’s response wasn’t exactly biblical. Dr. Michael Brown breaks down why.
