Hello!
I'm excited to be sharing my first post with you today!
I caught this beautiful interpretation to Romans chapter 12 since June. I believe you'll love to go back and study it after reading these lines.
The chapter does not only admonish us to not commit fornication or adultery or those other obvious sins as we may want to explain; but as christians whose spirits are already yielded to the things of God, we must intentionally make our bodies yield too. Romans 12 talks about how christians should lay better examples for the world; how we should be pacesetters and not 'copycats'.
The world would expect us to imbibe some certain conducts or behave in some certain ways, we shouldn't be deceived, we are meant to dictate the tune of things.
Christians are people whose inward transformation controls their outward conducts. They live Inside-Out.
We should control the world and not the other way round. In the second verse, we would see that we are the ones supposed to show what the 'good, acceptable, and perfect' codes of conduct are by our renewed minds.
After all enumerated in the verses, the entire chapter can be summarised like this: use the good in you to overcome the evil in the world; you must not allow the evil, bitterness, vengeance ruling the world to have place in your heart. Our good should outweigh evil. We should heap coals of fire on the head of evil doers by doing more good works.
The truths above are highly recommended as christians have now become more mesmerised and don't know how to respond to the disturbing situations happening in the world presently.
Please, study that chapter again and let's share insights!
