Romans 12 provides us with a general outlook on how to live the Christian life. While many think what Paul has to say is unreasonable and impossible, Paul presents it as the way God expects us to live and gives us the grace to live. It is imperative for Christians to stop living like the world and listening to its advice. Christians must learn to live according to the principles given in the Bible and take our marching orders from the Written Word as given by the Living Word. This book is chuck full of scriptures and solidly based on the Word of God. God expects obedience and tells us obedience is better than sacrifice. We need to live in a manner that is congruent with the Word.God tells us how to live according to His Word, live in peace with others, what wonderful spiritual gifts He has given us, how to love our enemies, and how to avoid evil. This chapter in Romans is truly the recipe for living godly lives.
