A Sacrifice Worth Making

26 October 2013

So let’s review, in Romans 12:1-2 Paul is saying:

Brothers and Sisters in Christ I urge you to do the following:

  1. Be all in for the Lord by living every aspect of your life in great thankfulness to God for His tender mercy and grace toward you.

  2. Since we are saved by the sovereign grace of God and not by our works, we are now at liberty to perform good works in honor of this precious gift.

  3. We are to be different from the world.

  4. We need to rid ourselves of the world’s way of thinking and acting by filling our minds with the word of God.

  5. We are now blessed to prove to ourselves what joy we find when we walk in full fellowship with God.

Sounds like a sacrifice worth making.
