Romans 12

Jerry Harris • Romans • August 20, 2023

Romans 12 emphasizes our response to what has been learned through the first 11 chapters. Vertically, responding to God’s mercy through being a living sacrifice; outwardly, showing humility and recognizing our place in God’s plan alongside others; and inwardly, evaluating ourselves and striving for transformation rather than conformation.
