What’s the difference between our position and our standing in Christ? This short reflection offers a helpful distinction between being blessed in Him and standing in His authority.

What Does It Mean To Be a Living Sacrifice?

What Does It Mean To Be a Living Sacrifice? A friend asked me this question recently. To be forced to think about the scriptures one knows so well is a huge blessing.
Romans 12:1 “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. 2 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.”
Actually, I believe the answers are all contained within the scripture!
