Stranger danger is a basic warning for children given by their parents. The warning is to help them understand that there are certain people they need to avoid. Parents give all sorts of warnings to their children as they grow up. It is natural, kind, and helpful in the development of children. God also warns us of dangerous people as Christians. People who will be a detriment to our Christian growth. In Romans 16:17-20, Paul says these people will cause divisions and create obstacles for us as Christians. The simple answer Paul gives as a warning to us is to “avoid them.”
As Romans comes to a conclusion, we are given a final warning on how to live well for Jesus. Come this Sunday to worship, pray, and receive God’s Word. God, like good parents, is helpful and kind in giving us warnings and equipping us on how to live in this difficult world.
“I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them.” - Romans 16:17
