Therefore connects us to the previous part of Romans.
1.
I urge you
The phrase is tender, “I urge you” - please consider this
The phrase is also tough, “I urge you” - you must do this
Give yourself to work of God
Living sacrifice as opposed to a dead sacrifice
Work of God is beyond the 4 walls of the church
That is spiritual act of worship - much more than a song
2. In view of what God has done
Don’t be distracted by what hasn’t happened
Look to all that He has done
Examine His goodness on your life
His faithfulness is from everlasting to everlasting
His faithfulness yesterday reveals His power for tomorrow
3. Do not conform
Don’t bring the sinful into the spiritual
Don’t think that the world’s system will govern in God’s kingdom
Stop acting and doing what the heathen do
The world’s pattern has limitations
4. Be transformed
The word comes from a greek word where we get metamorphosis
Metamorphosis: A change of form or nature of a thing or person into a completely different one, by natural or supernatural means
Means to remodel - tear down and rebuild
Means to change into another form
Change the outer appearance of the person, it starts inside
You must be committed to the change
Continue in the transformation
Don’t let the struggle keep you from the transformation
In the caterpillar stage, the butterfly to be, needs to eat a lot
In the adult stage the Butterfly must reproduce
5. Renew your mind
Someone once said, “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks”
That is a lie
The process is renew your mind is called neuroplasticity
It is the ability of the brain to change continuously throughout an individual’s life
Even if the individual has developmental challenges
It requires a lot of repetition to strengthen the muscle
You need to start thinking like Christ
You have to be committed to the renewal process
Change what you think and your results will change
Gal 5:
Renewal requires the continued challenge of the mind
C
Change your thinking and your limits will change
