“You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.”
Leviticus 19:34
Regardless where we call “home” here on earth, Christians understand that we are all strangers here. All humanity, every single person of every nationality and culture, share one thing in common: we have all sinned against God. We have all been displaced by sin from the paradise we once enjoyed and were intended for. Without God’s gracious intervention and salvation given to us freely in the death and resurrection of His only Son, Jesus Christ, we would have been lost forever. The Good News for all humanity is that God has not left us as strangers. He came here in the flesh, in His Son, Jesus Christ, and lived as a stranger among His own people, died for us, and rose again so that we would be welcomed home once again into the presence of God through faith in what Christ has done for us. When we see strangers amongst us. We see ourselves. We see the love of God in Jesus for all people.
“I was a stranger, and you welcomed me.”
– Jesus (Matthew 25:35)

Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers,
for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
