Would you turn with me, please, in the scripture this evening, to the book of Romans, the second chapter.

Romans chapter 12, Romans chapter 12, Romans chapter 12.

Romans chapter 12.

If you didn't bring a Bible with you this evening, the ushers have extra bibles, hold up your hand real high, and now they'll get one to you.

Turn with us. Let your eyes rest you. Turn with us.

Let your eyes rest on these words with us.

Before we go further, let's pray and come into agreement.

Believe the Lord.

You know, what you get tonight is not just all depending on me.

I'm not the teacher.

He's the teacher. The Spirit of God. So close your eyes.

Let's agree in prayer. Father, in the name of Jesus, we come together asking you for utterance,

asking you to give every one of us eyes that see, ears that hear, hearts that are open and receptive.

Let there come, Lord, divine revelation of truth that makes free, direction, answers to questions,

and direction in our life right now, just what we need.

You know what we need, and we ask you for it, and we believe we receive it, and we thank you for it in advance before we read the first verse. We thank you. It'll be good. We'll get it.

We'll hear from you. And we'll come up to another place. In Jesus' name, amen.

Thank you, Lord. Amen means so be it.

Amen.

Romans 12 and 1.

He said, I beseeched you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,

that you present your bodies a living sacrifice.
