Pr. Kevin preached about what is means to be a living sacrifice as we dove deeper into discovering and living out our spiritual gifts.
"I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship." -Romans 12:1
The benefit of a living sacrifice…
…God gave us differing gifts in order that we would depend on one another.
…There is no love without giving - it requires surrender, sacrifice, and thing selflessly.
The benefit of a holy sacrifice…
…A holy sacrifice is one that is done unto God or for God. It is done with a renewed mind, in faith, by faith.
The benefit of an acceptable sacrifice…
…One that is transformed rather that conformed.
…Free from competition, comparison and chaos
…Done in humility rather that pride, done for the body of Christ.
The greatest benefit of a sacrifice is on the cross…
…It is the cross where Jesus bought life for you
…It is the cross where the Christ, the Holy Sacrifice made full satisfaction for your sin
…It is the cross where the Lord made you acceptable to God.
We would love to pray with you today!
