Today's very specific. Very, very specific. We have a big lift today, but that's God's business. Amen to that. So Romans chapter 12. And how about if I read it all as we stand in honor of God's word? I'm going to read it all for time's sake. But today we're going to be focusing on some things that will if you're listening and if you're willing

will transform your life that's a promise from the word of god he says i beseech you therefore

brethren by the mercies of god i'm pleading with you that you present your bodies a living sacrifice

holy acceptable to god so in other words sign up for duty. Show up for duty.

Show up to be worshippers.

Because that's what that word means, which is your reasonable worship or service.

It's the same word.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

Listen, you want to be transformed in this 21st century?

Why don't you let God transform your mind?

And you'll discover who you really are in Christ.

That you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

For I say through the grace given to me to everyone who is among you

not to think of himself more

highly than he ought to think. In other words, don't be conceded or puffed up as a believer,

but think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. This is key. For as we have

many members, look around you, in one body, this church localized right here, this

service, but all the members do not have the same function.

That's key today's study.

So we being many are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.

Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us,

let us use them.
