The death of the one "Lamb of God, taking away the sin of the world," has swept all dead victims from off the altar of God, to make room for the redeemed themselves as "living sacrifices" to Him who made "Him to be sin for us"; while every outgoing of their grateful hearts in praise, and every act prompted by the love of Christ, is itself a sacrifice to God of a sweet-smelling savor ( Hebrews 13:15 Hebrews 13:16 ). As it is through the body that all the evil that is in the unrenewed heart comes forth into palpable manifestation and action, so it is through the body that all the gracious principles and affections of believers reveal themselves in the outward life.

Romains chapitre 12. (7) As forgetfulness of this has been the source of innumerable and unspeakable evils in the Church of Christ, so the faithful exercise by every Christian of his own peculiar office and gifts, and the loving recognition of those of his brethren, as all of equal importance in their own place, would put a new face upon the visible Church, to the vast benefit and comfort of Christians themselves and to the admiration of the world around them ( Romans 12:6-8 ).

C'est le même terme qui a été utilisé en Mt. and though Christianity has so changed the spirit of society, that a certain beautiful disinterestedness and self-sacrifice shines in the character of not a few who are but partially, if at all under the transforming power of the Gospel, it is only those whom "the love of Christ constrains to live not unto themselves," who are capable of thoroughly acting in the spirit of this precept. 8.

And not only do, but study and take care to do, that which is amiable and creditable, and recommends religion to all with whom you converse. And love to God and man, with zeal for the gospel, will make the wise Christian diligent in all his wordly business, and in gaining superior skill. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good--What a lofty tone of moral principle and feeling is here inculcated! (On the word "experience" 1 Thessalonians 5:10 , where the sentiment is the same). True Christian love will make us take part in the sorrows and joys of each other. Or he that exhorteth--Since all preaching, whether by apostles, prophets, or teachers, was followed up by exhortation ( Acts 11:23 , 14:22 , 15:32 , &c.), many think that no specific class is here in view. Paul a passé pas moins de 11 chapitres pour nous parler du plan de Dieu. This is a powerful appeal. Romains. It is acceptable to God: a reasonable service, which we are able and ready to give a reason for, and which we understand. Be--"Being" of the same mind one toward another--The feeling of the common bond which binds all Christians to each other, whatever diversity of station, cultivation, temperament, or gifts may obtain among them, is the thing here enjoined. Many Romish expositors and some Protestant (as CALVIN and BENGEL, and, though, hesitatingly, BEZA and HODGE), render this "the analogy of faith," understanding by it "the general tenor" or "rule of faith," divinely delivered to men for their guidance. to every man that is among you, not to think, &c.--It is impossible to convey in good English the emphatic play, so to speak, which each word here has upon another: "not to be high-minded above what he ought to be minded, but so to be minded as to be sober-minded" [CALVIN, ALFORD]. Conversion and sanctification are the renewing of the mind; a change, not of the substance, but of the qualities of the soul. 11. not slothful in business--The word rendered "business" means "zeal," "diligence," "purpose"; denoting the energy of action. If our "hope" of glory is so assured that it is a rejoicing hope, we shall find the spirit of "endurance in tribulation" natural and easy; but since it is "prayer" which strengthens the faith that begets hope and lifts it up into an assured and joyful expectancy, and since our patience in tribulation is fed by this, it will be seen that all depends on our "perseverance in prayer.". 1:1). And those that embrace religion, must expect to meet with enemies in a world whose smiles seldom agree with Christ's. them which persecute you, &c.--This is taken from the Sermon on the Mount ( Matthew 5:44 ), which, from the allusions made to it, seems to have been the storehouse of Christian morality among the churches. But how emphatically expressed is the injunction to let nothing on our part prevent it! But if liberty was given to others to exercise themselves occasionally in exhorting the brethren, generally, or small parties of the less instructed, the reference may be to them. But as the context shows that the injunction is to leave vengeance to God, "wrath" here seems to mean, not the offense, which we are tempted to avenge, but the avenging wrath of God (see 2 Chronicles 24:18 ), which we are enjoined to await, or give room for. Romains 12.2 “…ne vous laissez pas modeler par le monde actuel, mais laissez vous transformer par le renouvellement de votre pensée…” 1Pierre 1.13-16 “…tenez votre esprit en éveil et ne vous laissez pas distraire…tout comme celui qui vous a appelé est saint, soyez saints dans tout votre comportement…” But this is against the context, whose object is to show that, as all the gifts of believers are according to their respective capacity for them, they are not to be puffed up on account of them, but to use them purely for their proper ends. 6-06-78.

But as we must not be proud of our talents, so we must take heed lest, under a pretence of humility and self-denial, we are slothful in laying out ourselves for the good of others. (3) In this light, what are we to think of the so-called "unbloody sacrifice of the mass, continually offered to God as a propitiation for the sins both of the living and the dead," which the adherents of Rome's corrupt faith have been taught for ages to believe is the highest and holiest act of Christian worship--in direct opposition to the sublimely simple teaching which the Christians of Rome first received ( Romans 12:1 )-- (4) Christians should not feel themselves at liberty to be conformed to the world, if only they avoid what is manifestly sinful; but rather, yielding themselves to the transforming power of the truth as it is in Jesus, they should strive to exhibit before the world an entire renovation of heart and life ( Romans 12:2 ).
