Romans 12:1,2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
It is ONLY reasonable for the Lord to expect us to present our bodies acceptable unto Him. We apply this to our children all the time........take out the trash, it's YOUR job. You need no ribbon or badge for doing it, you're supposed to do it.
If we have had the 'transformation of mind', they why be worldly? Why take any steps backward? Any time we do, we are not proving what is good and acceptable or perfect........for the will of God in our life. Any time a decision comes up and we take that step back instead of going forward, we are being conformed to the world.
That is how you got to where you are at in your life, today. By taking steps forward or backward. It all adds up.
