Your security as a Christian depends on a realistic view of the danger we are in. If the gospel produces complacency something has gone badly wrong. In 1 Corinthians 10 Paul sounds a strong warning to the church. He wants to snap them out of their complacency. He wants them to see the danger. But his ultimate goal is not anxious paranoia – but a deep and joyful confidence in God. Don’t flirt with crocodiles.
