Romans 12 Part 1
2
Romans 121 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by
the mercies of God, that you present your bodies
a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God,
which is your reasonable service. The word
beseech means to beg or to plead
3
Romans 58 But God demonstrates His own love
toward us, in that while we were still sinners,
Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now
been justified by His blood, we shall be saved
from wrath through Him. 10 For if when we were
enemies we were reconciled to God through the
death of His Son, much more, having been
reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. 11
And not only that, but we also rejoice in God
through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we
have now received the reconciliation.
4
God is the Father of mercies (2 Cor. 13).
5
Romans 1132 For God has committed them all to
disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.
6
The word present means to give something over to
another.
7
Hebrews 911 But Christ came as High Priest of
the good things to come, with the greater and
more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that
is, not of this creation. 12 Not with the blood
of goats and calves, but with His own blood He
entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having
obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood
of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer,
sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the
purifying of the flesh, 14 how much more shall
the blood of Christ, who through the eternal
Spirit offered Himself without spot to God,
cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve
the living God?
8
Romans 61 What shall we say then? Shall we
continue in sin that grace may abound? 2
Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live
any longer in it? 3 Or do you not know that as
many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus
were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we
were buried with Him through baptism into death,
that just as Christ was raised from the dead by
the glory of the Father, even so we also should
walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been
united together in the likeness of His death,
certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His
resurrection,
9
6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified
with Him, that the body of sin might be done away
with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.
7 For he who has died has been freed from sin. 8
Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we
shall also live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ,
having been raised from the dead, dies no more.
Death no longer has dominion over Him. 10 For
the death that He died, He died to sin once for
all but the life that He lives, He lives to God.
11 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be
dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ
Jesus our Lord.
10
Romans 121 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by
the mercies of God, that you present your bodies
a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God,
which is your reasonable service.
11
1 Corinthians 619 Or do you not know that your
body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in
you, whom you have from God, and you are not your
own? 20 For you were bought at a price
therefore glorify God in your body and in your
spirit, which are God's.
12
Psalm 119105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And
a light to my path.
13
Romans 1017 So then faith comes by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God.
14
Galatians 519 Now the works of the flesh are
evident, which are adultery, fornication,
uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery,
hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of
wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,
21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the
like of which I tell you beforehand, just as I
also told you in time past, that those who
practice such things will not inherit the kingdom
of God.
Galatians 519 Now the works of the flesh are

uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery,

21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the
like of which I tell you beforehand, just as I
also told you in time past, that those who
practice such things will not inherit the kingdom
of God.
15
Galatians 522 But the fruit of the Spirit is
love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness,
self-control. Against such there is no law. 24
And those who are Christ's have crucified the
flesh with its passions and desires.
16
Galatians 610 Therefore, as we have opportunity,
let us do good to all, especially to those who
are of the household of faith.
17
1 Corinthians 924 Do you not know that those who
run in a race all run, but one receives the
prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.
25 And everyone who competes for the prize is
temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain
a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable
crown.
18
Ephesians 429 Let no corrupt word proceed out of
your mouth, but what is good for necessary
edification, that it may impart grace to the
hearers.
19
Colossians 46 Let your speech always be with
grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how
you ought to answer each one.
20
Matthew 1037 "He who loves father or mother more
than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son
or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. 38
"And he who does not take his cross and follow
after Me is not worthy of Me.
21
Romans 122 And do not be conformed to this
world, but be transformed by the renewing of your
mind, that you may prove what is that good and
acceptable and perfect will of God.
22
1 Peter 114 as obedient children, not conforming
yourselves to the former lusts, as in your
ignorance 15 but as He who called you is holy,
you also be holy in all your conduct,
23
1 John 215 Do not love the world or the things
in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love
of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is
in the world -- the lust of the flesh, the lust
of the eyes, and the pride of life -- is not of
the Father but is of the world. 17 And the world
is passing away, and the lust of it but he who
does the will of God abides forever.
24
1 Peter 113 Therefore gird up the loins of your
mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the
grace that is to be brought to you at the
revelation of Jesus Christ
25
Romans 85 For those who live according to the
flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh,
but those who live according to the Spirit, the
things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally
minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is
life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is
enmity against God for it is not subject to the
law of God, nor indeed can be. 8 So then, those
who are in the flesh cannot please God.
26
Colossians 31 If then you were raised with
Christ, seek those things which are above, where
Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2
Set your mind on things above, not on things on
the earth.
27
2 Corinthians 104 For the weapons of our warfare
are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down
strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every
high thing that exalts itself against the
knowledge of God, bringing every thought into
captivity to the obedience of Christ,
28
Romans 122 And do not be conformed to this
world, but be transformed by the renewing of your
mind, that you may prove what is that good and
acceptable and perfect will of God.
29
Are you presenting your body as a living
sacrifice for God? Are you willing to put God
first in your life above your family and
yourself? Are you conforming to the world or are
you continually transforming yourself toward
Christ and His ways?
30
Romans 12 Part 2
31
Romans 123 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, but
to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a
measure of faith.
32
James 46 "God resists the proud, But gives
grace to the humble."
33
Philippians 25 Let this mind be in you which was
also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form
of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal
with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation,
taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in
the likeness of men. 8 And being found in
appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and
became obedient to the point of death, even the
death of the cross.
34
Galatians 328 There is neither Jew nor Greek,
there is neither slave nor free, there is neither
male nor female for you are all one in Christ
Jesus.
35
Philippians 21 Therefore if there is any
consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if
any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection
and mercy, 2 fulfill my joy by being
like-minded, having the same love, being of one
accord, of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done
through selfish ambition or conceit, but in
lowliness of mind let each esteem others better
than himself. 4 Let each of you look out not
only for his own interests, but also for the
interests of others. 5 Let this mind be in you
which was also in Christ Jesus,
36
The word soberly means to be balanced, sane, in
one's right mind."
37
Romans 1117 And if some of the branches were
broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree,
were grafted in among them, and with them became
a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive
tree, 18 do not boast against the branches. But
if you do boast, remember that you do not support
the root, but the root supports you. 19 You will
say then, "Branches were broken off that I might
be grafted in." 20 Well said. Because of
unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by
faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. 21 For if
God did not spare the natural branches, He may
not spare you either. 22 Therefore consider the
goodness and severity of God on those who fell,
severity but toward you, goodness, if you
continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will
be cut off.
38
Romans 124 For as we have many members in one
body, but all the members do not have the same
function, 5 so we, being many, are one body in
Christ, and individually members of one another.
6 Having then gifts differing according to the
grace that is given to us, let us use them if
prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our
faith 7 or ministry, let us use it in our
ministering he who teaches, in teaching 8 he
who exhorts, in exhortation he who gives, with
liberality he who leads, with diligence he who
shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
39
1 Corinthians 1212 For as the body is one and
has many members, but all the members of that one
body, being many, are one body, so also is
Christ. 13 For by one Spirit we were all
baptized into one body -- whether Jews or Greeks,
whether slaves or free -- and have all been made
to drink into one Spirit. 14 For in fact the
body is not one member but many. 15 If the foot
should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of
the body," is it therefore not of the body? 16
And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an
eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not
of the body? 17 If the whole body were an eye,
where would be the hearing? If the whole were
hearing, where would be the smelling?
40
18 But now God has set the members, each one of
them, in the body just as He pleased. 19 And if
they were all one member, where would the body
be? 20 But now indeed there are many members,
yet one body. 21 And the eye cannot say to the
hand, "I have no need of you" nor again the head
to the feet, "I have no need of you." 22 No,
much rather, those members of the body which seem
to be weaker are necessary. 23 And those members
of the body which we think to be less honorable,
on these we bestow greater honor and our
unpresentable parts have greater modesty, 24 but
our presentable parts have no need. But God
composed the body, having given greater honor to
that part which lacks it,
41
25 that there should be no schism in the body,
but that the members should have the same care
for one another. 26 And if one member suffers,
all the members suffer with it or if one member
is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members
individually.
42
Philippians 127 Only let your conduct be worthy
of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come
and see you or am absent, I may hear of your
affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with
one mind striving together for the faith of the
gospel,
43
Philippians 123 For I am hard pressed between
the two, having a desire to depart and be with
Christ, which is far better. 24 Nevertheless to
remain in the flesh is more needful for you. 25
And being confident of this, I know that I shall
remain and continue with you all for your
progress and joy of faith, 26 that your
rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus
Christ by my coming to you again.
44
2 Timothy 46 For I am already being poured out
as a drink offering, and the time of my departure
is at hand. 7 I have fought the good fight, I
have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
45
Are you doing your part? Are you using your
talents for the Lord?
46
Romans 126 Having then gifts differing according
to the grace that is given to us, let us use
them if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion
to our faith 7 or ministry, let us use it in
our ministering he who teaches, in teaching 8
he who exhorts, in exhortation he who gives,
with liberality he who leads, with diligence he
who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
47
1 Corinthians 141 Pursue love, and desire
spiritual gifts, but especially that you may
prophesy. 2 For he who speaks in a tongue does
not speak to men but to God, for no one
understands him however, in the spirit he speaks
mysteries. 3 But he who prophesies speaks
edification and exhortation and comfort to men.
48
Galatians 513 For you, brethren, have been
called to liberty only do not use liberty as an
opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve
one another.
49
Galatians 610-11 Therefore, as we have
opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to
those who are of the household of faith.
50
James 31 My brethren, let not many of you become
teachers, knowing that we shall receive a
stricter judgment.
51
2 Timothy 224 And a servant of the Lord must not
quarrel but be gentle to all, able to teach,
patient, 25 in humility correcting those who are
in opposition, if God perhaps will grant them
repentance, so that they may know the truth, 26
and that they may come to their senses and escape
the snare of the devil, having been taken captive
by him to do his will.
52
Proverbs 2511 A word fitly spoken is like apples
of gold In settings of silver.
53
Liberality means sincerely, not self seeking,
openness of heart manifesting itself by
generosity (Thayer).
54
1 Timothy 617 Command those who are rich in this
present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in
uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives
us richly all things to enjoy. 18 Let them do
good, that they be rich in good works, ready to
give, willing to share, 19 storing up for
themselves a good foundation for the time to
come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
55
Are you using your talents that God has blessed
you with for the cause of Christ or are you
allowing your talents to go to waste?
56
ROMANS 12 PART 3
57
Romans 129 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor
what is evil. Cling to what is good. 10 Be
kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly
love, in honor giving preference to one another
11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit,
serving the Lord 12 rejoicing in hope, patient
in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer
13 distributing to the needs of the saints,
given to hospitality.
58
Let love be without hypocrisy.
59
1 John 318 My little children, let us not love
in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
60
1 Corinthians 131 Though I speak with the
tongues of men and of angels, but have not love,
I have become sounding brass or a clanging
cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of
prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all
knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I
could remove mountains, but have not love, I am
nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to
feed the poor, and though I give my body to be
burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

61
Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. Abhor
- to have a vehement dislike for something, to
hate strongly, to have a horror of (BDAG,
Thayer)
62
Psalm 9710 You who love the LORD, hate evil! He
preserves the souls of His saints He delivers
them out of the hand of the wicked. Psalm
119104 Through Your precepts I get
understanding Therefore I hate every false way.
63
Psalm 1013 I will set nothing wicked before my
eyes I hate the work of those who fall away It
shall not cling to me. 4 A perverse heart shall
depart from me I will not know wickedness.
64
The word cling means to glue, to glue together,
cement (Thayer).
65
Philippians 48 Finally, brethren, whatever
things are true, whatever things are noble,
whatever things are just, whatever things are
pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things
are of good report, if there is any virtue and if
there is anything praiseworthy -- meditate on
these things.
66
Be kindly affectionate to one another with
brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one
another,
67
John 1334 "A new commandment I give to you, that
you love one another as I have loved you, that
you also love one another. 35 "By this all will
know that you are My disciples, if you have love
for one another."
68
11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit,
serving the Lord
69
Colossians 323 And whatever you do, do it
heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, 24
knowing that from the Lord you will receive the
reward of the inheritance for you serve the Lord
Christ.
70
12 rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation,
continuing steadfastly in prayer
71
Ephesians 617 And take the helmet of salvation,
and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of
God 18 praying always with all prayer and
supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to
this end with all perseverance and supplication
for all the saints --
72
13 distributing to the needs of the saints, given
to hospitality.
73
Acts 434 Nor was there anyone among them who
lacked for all who were possessors of lands or
houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the
things that were sold, 35 and laid them at the
apostles' feet and they distributed to each as
anyone had need.
74
Romans 1214 Bless those who persecute you bless
and do not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who
rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 Be of
the same mind toward one another. Do not set your
mind on high things, but associate with the
humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. 17
Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good
things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is
possible, as much as depends on you, live
peaceably with all men. 19 Beloved, do not
avenge yourselves, but rather give place to
wrath for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I
will repay," says the Lord. 20 Therefore "If
your enemy is hungry, feed him If he is thirsty,
give him a drink For in so doing you will heap
coals of fire on his head." 21 Do not be
overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
75
Bless those who persecute you bless and do not
curse.
76
1 Peter 38 Finally, all of you be of one mind,
having compassion for one another love as
brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous 9 not
returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling,
but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you
were called to this, that you may inherit a
blessing.
77
15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with
those who weep.
78
16 Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not
set your mind on high things, but associate with
the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
79
1 Corinthians 1533 Do not be deceived "Evil
company corrupts good habits."
80
Galatians 63 For if anyone thinks himself to be
something, when he is nothing, he deceives
himself.
81
17 Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for
good things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is
possible, as much as depends on you, live
peaceably with all men. 19 Beloved, do not
avenge yourselves, but rather give place to
wrath for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I
will repay," says the Lord. 20 Therefore "If
your enemy is hungry, feed him If he is thirsty,
give him a drink For in so doing you will heap
coals of fire on his head." 21 Do not be
overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
82
1 Samuel 2416 So it was, when David had finished
speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, "Is
this your voice, my son David?" And Saul lifted
up his voice and wept. 17 Then he said to David
"You are more righteous than I for you have
rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded
you with evil. 18 "And you have shown this day
how you have dealt well with me for when the
LORD delivered me into your hand, you did not
kill me. 19 "For if a man finds his enemy, will
he let him get away safely? Therefore may the
LORD reward you with good for what you have done
to me this day.
83
1 Thessalonians 515 See that no one renders evil
for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is
good both for yourselves and for all. 16 Rejoice
always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in
everything give thanks for this is the will of
God in Christ Jesus for you.
