being embedded in clay pots. Paul goes on with this paradoxical parlance and communication.

8:20Romans 12
in our heart that God raised him from the dead, we will be saved. That for us, the gospel, the greatest news of it, it is dependent on God's awesomeness and not ours. And so then everything in Romans changes in Romans chapter 12 is what is our response to the good news? What do we do with this life, with this eternal salvation that we're given in grace? And here in Romans 15, this is more of the response for us as believers. What do we do in…
17:08Romans 12
That's what Paul paints in just the couple of chapters before this. Paul says this in Romans 12. He says, rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Like, y'all, for us to be builders,…

August 17, 2025 · Dr Josh Burnham
0:44Romans 12
Welcome to the church that gathers here locally at Bethel. My name is Josh. I get to bring the word today. And we will be in the book of Romans. So if you have your Bibles, and I hope that you do, turn them to the book of Romans, chapter 12, today. And as we arrive there, let me ask us all this question. If the Lord were to look you in the eyes this morning
3:07Romans 12
What is his will for us? And I'm going to give you four steps and seven tests. So yes, that's an 11-point sermon, but we can do it. Romans chapter 12, beginning in verse 1 and 2. He says, Brothers and sisters, in view, in light of God's mercy, submit your lives as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing unto the Lord. This is your spiritual act of worship. Verse 2. Do not be conformed to the ways of the world,
When in Romans – Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death! (Romans 14:1-12)
October 13, 2024 · Aaron Meeks
23:34Romans 12
It's a life-transforming call to be living sacrifices, as we covered in Romans 12. Our whole existence should be anchored in glorifying Jesus, reflecting his love and grace in all that we do. The heart of living a life for Jesus is rooted in gratitude. We praise him not just because he's worthy, but because of what he did for us that we could not do for ourselves. Once, we stood condemned in our sin,
When in Romans -By grace we think, and by grace we serve (Romans 12:3-8)

0:51Romans 12
Hey, my name is Josh Burnham, lead pastor here at Bethel. And today I get the joy of bringing you the Word of God from Romans chapter 12. And as we always do, we welcome our new guest.

4:26Romans 12
And I pray that by the end of our gathered worship, that the individual members of our puzzle will end up in a beautiful gospel picture of God's grace. Let's read the word of the Lord. Romans 12, beginning in verse 3, reading until verse 8. Hear the word of the Lord. For by the grace given to me, I tell everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he should.
ESTHER – A Life That Pleases the King (Esther 5:3-4)

ESTHER – If You Keep Silent (Esther 4:1-3)
April 28, 2024 · Dr Josh Burnham
32:24Romans 12
She needed favor and she needed the royal clothing. Finally, in the Hebrew, it says that she put on royalty. Now, I would argue it was God himself that clothed her in royalty. The word sacrifice is used over and over in the Bible, 182 times if you want to count this afternoon. We have reminders of sacrifice like Romans 12. Therefore, brothers and sisters, I beseech you under the mercies of God to present your bodies as living sacrifice,
When in Romans: Suppression of Truth (1:18-23)
January 28, 2024 · Dr Josh Burnham
24:44Romans 12
So let me give you the Christian sexual ethic. First, the reminder in the Bible is that your body can glorify Christ. Romans 12, 1. Present your body as a living sacrifice to the Lord. Holy and pleasing. So don't let anyone degrade you. Let me tell you this. Don't let anyone just say you are only your body alone. That is a low view of what God has created in your life to be holy and just and right. Don't let anyone degrade you.
Who’s Your King: Obedience Is Better (Read 1 Samuel 15:22)

from the living sacrifice from Saul's life. Romans 12 would sum it up this way. Therefore, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, I urge you, present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing. This is your spiritual act and your true act of worship.

The Power of Relationships
August 9, 2020 · Benny Bowman
26:54Romans 12:4–5
…We fell in love with this church. We couldn't leave this church. We felt like God would kill us if we left this church. But we fell in love with Bethel Baptist Church. So I would challenge you. Come and be a part. In Romans 12:4-5 it says, "Now as we have many parts in one body, and all the parts do not have the same function, in the same way we are many but are one body in Christ, and individual members unto one another."

we are not worshiping. We are trying to intellectually ascend and we cannot do that. So how do we worship in spirit and in truth then?

14:14Romans 12
…you say, well, pastor, prove it to me. I'm glad you said that. 1 John 3:1, "Beloved, what manner the love of the Father has bestowed on us, given to us, given to us, that we might be called children of the Most High." Romans 12. Paul says, "Having then gifts." What are gifts? Things that are given to us. According to the grace that is given, let us use them. Romans 12:30, "Now if God clothes," sorry, this is Matthew, "If God clothes the grass…
14:24Romans 12:30
Romans 12:30, "Now if God clothes," sorry, this is Matthew, "If God clothes the grass of the field, which today is and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, He will not more clothe you, O you of little faith." Over and over again, Jesus tells us, "Look, if you follow me, if you are my child, I will not leave you empty handed." And we often struggle. We say, "God, I can't give you, I can't serve you because I'm worried about myself."

Wimpy religion, going through the motions. No goals, no purpose, no challenges. Christianity had lost its teeth. The church was almost nothing but a series of meetings showing up and leaving. No change whatsoever. The church is calling us to be Romans 12. The church is desperately calling, the Lord is desperately calling the church and calling men to be Romans 12.

But if your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

The first 11 chapters of Romans are our doctrine for understanding why we come to be teachable and learners of the life we're to lead in Jesus Christ in Romans chapter 12.
