In this continuation of the series “Encountering the
Stranger” we will talk about our call to identify with the Stranger, Alien and
Foreigner. Because of Israel’s experience in Egypt and as wanderers on the face
of the earth, they were called to treat the foreigner among them as one of
their own. It is through identifying with the plight of another that we are
able to empathize and assist them. As Christians, we too are called to
recognize our ‘alien’ status on earth, living as Kingdom of God people while here
on earth.
