Romans 12 includes What is worship? How do I know what God’s will is for my life? How can I become a better Christian? What is this ‘transformation’ we expect
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy… Rom 12:1 Prosecution Defence Verdict Judgment
Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. Col 3:1-3
Therefore in view of God’s mercy
… offer your bodies as a living sacrifice
… do not conform … be transformed
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Gal 2:20 … put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Eph 4:24
