40 percent of people who come to visit America on a visa overstay their visa and we have no idea where they are. On 9/11, at least 2 of the hijackers were here on visa.

So there are problems I think in the immigration system that need to be fixed for our safety.

We must see the face of the Lord .... There are things that God says to me that I know must take place. It doesn't matter what people say.

A man must be in an immovable condition. The voice of God must mean to him more than what he sees, feels, or what people say.
