1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
3
For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
4
For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
5
So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7
Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8
Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
9
Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
10
Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
11
Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
12
Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
13
Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.
14
Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
15
Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
16
Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Prov 3:7
17
Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
18
If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
19
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Deut 32:35
20
Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Prov 25:21,22
21
Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
In Romans Chapter 12, Paul continued his message of salvation to the Jewish-Christian followers of Christ in Rome. These people believed that the Second Coming of Christ would happen in their lifetime.
Moreover, they were being persecuted by both the Roman government, which had enough trouble with the monotheism of the Jews they ruled over, and the Jews, who thought the Jewish-Christian’s profession of faith in Jesus was blasphemous and heretical.
Closing Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for Jesus and that I have been saved by grace through faith in His finished work. Thank You that my salvation does not rely on what I have done but on what Christ has already done on my account. Thank You that while I was still a sinner Christ died for me and that by faith in Him, I have received spiritual gifts and graces, which are to be used for His glory. I pray that I may do all to the glory of God and present my body as a living sacrifice unto You – in Jesus name I pray, AMEN.
