A Living Sacrifice...With Our Government

Paul consistently reminds us that if we are going to live this life in a way that pleases God then it is going to cost us something. If we can read the end of Romans and not change anything within our lives, then it is probably not because we have it all put together, but it is more likely that we are resisting surrendering ourselves to the glory of God. Paul has reminded us to be a living sacrifice with the Church, with our enemies, and in chapter 13, a living sacrifice with our government. So, determine today that you are going to be a living sacrifice for the pleasure of God, regardless of the cost.
