We’re aliens. We’re strangers. We’re foreigners. As we sing in one of our hymns, “I’m but a stranger here.” There is a powerful and important gospel truth in that. In Christ, “we were created to be like God, in true righteousness.” This is who we are in Christ! It’s a powerful statement of Christian identity. Paul calls us to be like God as we live together and as we live as strangers in this world.
