Concluding Thoughts on
Romans 12
Romans
12 is one of my favorite chapters in all of the New Testament. Paul
does a great job of letting his readers know what good Christian
character is. He helps his readers to see the role that they have
within the body and the influence they have over that body.
Just
look at the list of what we are to be and do that he covers in this
one chapter. We are to live a life of sacrifice, be transformed, not
to think too much of ourselves, we are all members of one body, we
all have gifts for service to the body, we are to have genuine love
for the body and serve where we can. Read Romans 12 through to get
all of the details.
Romans
12 is so significant to me it is listed on my FACEBOOK page
for religious views, “Christian- see Romans 12”.
I read
and meditate on this chapter periodically. I find that it gives me a
lot to think about and an opportunity to do some soul searching. It's
not a to do list that I base my life on but a good place to look and
take a spiritual inventory.
When
one reads Romans 12 they are forced to look inward, and are caused to
reevaluate where they are in their spiritual development. What a
valuable treasure it is.
I hope
that the blogs I have posted about this wonderful chapter have been a
blessing to you and your study of God's word.
So
today, let's purpose in our hearts to live the life that we have read
about in Romans 12.
