Romans
12:1-2New Living Translation (NLT)
A Living
Sacrifice to God
12 And so,
dear brothers and sisters,[a] I plead with you to give
your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and
holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to
worship him.[b] 2 Don’t copy the
behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person
by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you,
which is good and pleasing and perfect
John
