How do we determine in our world the things that are good, acceptable, even perfect, in God&#8217;s eyes?<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s text in Romans 12:1-2 brings us to an exhortation to place ourselves in the best imaginable place in the universe. Before the throne of God in full acceptance. Bowed before God in all his holiness and righteousness and knowing that I am fully embraced by this mighty God.<\/p>\n<p>So I do the only reasonable thing. I worship him and offer my life as a living sacrifice.<\/p>\n<p>Do we understand what God offers us through his glorious gift of salvation? I come to this question again and again. We should be in such awe of God&#8217;s wondrous plan &#8230; How could we ever rebel? How could we ever stumble in our pettiness?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here is an overview of Romans.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Doctrine\/Theology: Romans 1-8<\/li>\n<li>God&#8217;s Redemptive History: Romans 9-11<\/li>\n<li>Practical Theology: Romans 12-16<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Presenting our bodies as living sacrifices is a necessary step to\u00a0making the most of our opportunity as believers in Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Want to know the will of God?
