Show Notes:

○ Romans 12

○ Lesson 9: "We Belong Together"

○ Read "Reflection" from book

○ Read Romans 12

§ Verses 1-2:

□ This is a convicting scripture!

□ A question from the book for your own consideration: "The problem with a living sacrifice is that it keeps crawling off the altar." What does that say about our tendency to hesitate in surrendering ourselves to God?

□ Makes me think of 1 Corinthians 6:19-20: (context deals with sexual immorality, but applies to sin in general)

® "Don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body."

□ But it is also encouraging because there is a promise attached to it (verse 2)

§ We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other (the Church, both local congregation and the Body of Believers worldwide)

□ Read part of "Inspiration" from book

□ We each have a role to play in advancing the Kingdom of God and to do the good that God had planned for us long ago (Ephesians 2:10)

□ Read 1 Corinthians 12: 12-27

□ Read Ephesians 4:1-16

§ From the book: "We lack obedience more than guidance"

□ God has told us what to do. So now what? We need to walk in obedience…love God, love our neighbors, pray for our enemies and bless those who persecute us…

Read Philippians 2:13

◊ "For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him."

○ Read Romans 12:21

○ Romans 11

○ Lesson 8: "Am I Called by God?"

○ Read "Situation" from book

○ Read Romans 11

§ God wants ALL people to come back to him! That is why sent his Son, Jesus.

® Read John 3:16-17

® "For this is how God loved the world: HE gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal lie. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.

§ Remember what we read last week in chapters 9 and 10:

□ God made a covenant with the people of Israel, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. (Genesis)

□ As Jesus said to the woman at the well in John 4:22- "…salvation comes through the Jews."

□ But the true children of promise, the children of God are not necessarily descendants of Abraham…

® Read Galatians 3:26-29

§ God's plan was for all of humanity to be reconciled back to him. So, "am I called by God?" -YES, you are!

□ Read Romans 8:28-29

□ Read Ephesians 1:3-14

□ Read Titus 3:3-6

□ Read 1 Thessalonians 5:5, 9-11

○ Romans 9 & 10

○ Lesson 7: "God's Plan"

○ Read Romans 9 & 10

§ God's plan has been laid out from the very beginning!

§ I am going to share God's plan from different passages in scripture, but the point is the same!

□ Read John 3: 16-21

□ Read Acts 2: 22-41

□ Read Ephesians 3: 6-12

□ Read Hebrews 10:10 (The Point)

® "For God's will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time."

§ God's plan was always for us to be reconciled back to him, for us to be back in right standing and relationship with him, as it was in the beginning in the Garden of Eden.

That's it, that's the point! So what are you going to do?

○ Romans 7 & 8

○ Lesson 6: Found NOT Guilty

○ Read Romans 7

○ Remember last week's lesson, we are free to choose who we will serve, God and righteousness or sin and death…

○ Read from the book, Life Lessons from Romans By Max Lucado

§ Reflections excerpt

§ Situation excerpt

○ Read Romans 8

○ Once again, Paul is reminding us that we are no longer obligated to sin! We have another choice, another way that we can choose to take.

○ God does NOT condemn you! If you have faith in Jesus, and believe that God sent his one and only Son to die once for all, to make us right with God, then God does not condemn you! If you have died to yourself and your sinful nature and have been raised to new life in Christ Jesus and have the Spirit of Christ living in you, then you are child of God, you belong to God!

§ See Romans 8:10-17

§ See Romans 8:34-37

○ NOTHING, absolutely nothing can separate you from the Love of God! We must remain faithful, for He is always faithful!

§ See Romans 8:38-39

○ You have been found NOT GUILTY!

§ Now remember, you deserved a GUILTY verdict! You are in fact guilty of all the sins you have committed.

§ But God, in His immense love for you, sent his Son to pay the price you should have paid on the cross for your sins, so that you could wear his righteousness instead of our own filthy sinful selves.

§ That is Grace and Mercy!

□ Read Hebrews 4:14-16

○ Read 1 Peter 2:21-25

○ Read Jude 1:24-25
