“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans 12:2 NRSV)

Read Romans 12:1-8.

Chapter 12 in Paul’s letter to the Romans marks a shift in tone and theme for the apostle. In the previous chapters, Paul has laid the groundwork for the doctrine of justification by grace. He carefully crafts his words to explain the freeing grace of God in Christ. In Chapter 12, Paul calls the faithful to live out the Gospel message. He answers the question, “So what?” by exhorting the Christians in Rome to live lives that reflect the grace and mercy of God.
