Who’s Conforming You?
Romans 12:1-2
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye 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 ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
The word conformed means to be similar or to twist together. In the modern church world in which we live sometimes it's hard to tell the Christian from the lost. The Bible tells us to present our bodies a living sacrifice which is out reasonable service. I know that we are not the judge of a person salvation, but we can inspect the fruit. Their are so many preacher's preaching a false gospel. That’s how people get messed up in there beliefs. Just because you shake a preacher's hand or get baptized this will not mean you’re saved. I fear that the church is trying to use worldly methods to build a work for God, but in reality we're becoming more like the world and less like Jesus. The Bible says to be transformed by the renewing of our mind. The word transformed means to change or to metamorphose. When a person gets saved there's a change made in his life. If there's never been a change there's no salvation. The Bible says that God has predestined us to be conformed into the image of his Son. The goal of God for all our lives is to be like Jesus.
