Romans:12:1-8
Seeker Overlay ON
*
I entreat you therefore ,
brothers ,
by the mercies of God ,
to present your bodies to Him as a living sacrifice ,
holy and acceptable to God .
This is your reasonable service of worship .
*
And be not conformed to this world ,
but be transformed by the renewing of your minds ,
so that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God .
*
For ,
through the grace that was given to me ,
I tell every man among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think ;
but so to think ,
as to think soberly ,
according to the measure of faith which God has given him .
*
For even as we have many members in one body ,
and not all members have the same function ;
*
so we ,
who are many ,
are one body in Christ ,
and we are severally members of one another .
*
But we have gifts differing according to the grace which was given to us .
He that has the gift of prophecy ,
let him prophesy according to the proportion of his faith .
*
If it is the gift of administration ,
let us give ourselves to our service .
*
Let the teacher give himself to his teaching ;
and he who exhorts others to his exhortation .
He who gives ,
let him do it in singleness of mind .
He who rules ,
let him rule with diligence ;
and he who shows mercy must be cheerful .
