Walking Out Your Faith Under Pressure
A. 12:1–8 Our first practical response to God’s mercy
12:1 Present our body as a living sacrifice on God’s altar
Results of this sacrifice:
12:2 1. Our mind renewed
2. Our lifestyle changed
3. Able to discern God’s will in 3 phases: good, acceptable,
perfect
12:3 (The renewed mind is humble and realistic)
4. Discover our allotted measure of faith
12:4–5 5. Discover our place and function in the Body of Christ
(Our measure of faith is suited to our function)
12:6–7 6. Begin to exercise appropriate gifts (charismata) within the
limits of our faith: e.g. prophecy, serving, teaching, exhorting,
giving, leading, showing mercy
B. 12:9–21 Fruits that grow from the root of love
12:9a Sincere love is the root of all Christian service (compare 1 Tim.
1:5)—producing many kinds of fruit—e.g.:
12:9b 1. Hate evil, love good—no neutrality (compare Ps. 45:7; 97:10)
12:10 2. Devoted to one another; preferring one another
12:11 3. Not lazy, diligent; serving the Lord with passionate dedication
(compare Rev. 3:16)
12:12 4. Cheerfully optimistic; holding out under pressure; loving to
pray
12:13 5. Sharing with fellow believers; practicing hospitality
12:14 6. Blessing our persecutors
12:15 7. Equally sympathetic with those who rejoice and those who
weep
12:16 8. Living in harmony; humble; not conceited or arrogant (compare
Prov. 13:10)
12:17 9. Never returning evil for evil; maintaining a reputation for right
dealing
12:18 10. Sincerely seeking peace with all
12:19–20 11. Never repay evil with evil, but with good
12:21 12. Meet and overcome evil with good—respond in the opposite
spirit: e.g. hatred with love; bitterness with sweetness; anger
with gentleness, etc. Only good is strong enough to overcome
evil
