Romans Chapter 12

Christians Are Living Sacrifices
1   I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2   And be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you   may   prove   what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
3   For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think  soberly,  according  as  God  has  dealt  to every man the measure of faith.

Christians Are One Body in Christ
4   For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
5   So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6   Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7   Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teaches, on teaching;
8   Or he that exhorts, on exhortation: he that gives, let him do it in simplicity; he that leads, with diligence;  he  that shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

Christians Should Live in Love
9    Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
10   Be tender loving one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;
11   Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
12   Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; constant in prayer;
13   Distributing to the necessity of holy ones; given to hospitality.
14   Bless them who persecute you: bless, and curse not.
15   Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
16   Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.
17   Recompense  to  no  man  evil  for  evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
18   If it be possible, as much as lies in you, live peaceably with all men.
19   Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord.
20   Therefore if your enemy hungers, feed him; if he thirsts, give him drink: for in so doing you shall heap coals of fire on his head.
21   Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
