Love Without Hypocrisy

Name Date

Read the Story

Paul asks us to give our bodies to God. He calls it a living sacrifice. "Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."

Paul says we are one body in Christ. Each part has a job. God gives us different gifts. Some teach, some serve, some give, and some show mercy.

"Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good." Be glad in hope. Keep praying. Share with God's people who need help.

"Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep." Live at peace with everyone as much as you can. If an enemy is hungry, feed him. "Don't be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."

Romans 12 · Grade 4

Transformed by the Renewing of Your Mind

Name Date

Read and Think

"Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service." "Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God."

Paul says not to think of yourself more highly than you ought. As one body has many members with different jobs, we, who are many, are one body in Christ. We have different gifts according to the grace given to us: prophecy, serving, teaching, encouraging, giving, leading, and showing mercy with cheerfulness.

"Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good." Love one another with brotherly affection. Be eager to serve the Lord, rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer, sharing with God's people, and giving hospitality.

Bless those who persecute you. "Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep." Associate with the humble. "If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men." Do not take revenge; leave room for God. If your enemy is hungry, feed him. "Don't be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."

  1. What is presenting your bodies a living sacrifice called?

Romans 12 · Grade 5

Overcome Evil with Good

Name Date

Read and Think

"Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service." "Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God."

Through the grace given to him, Paul tells each one not to think of himself more highly than he ought, but to think soberly, as God has given a measure of faith. As one body has many members, and not all have the same function, "so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another." Having gifts differing according to the grace given, let each use his gift: prophecy by faith, service in serving, teaching in teaching, exhorting in exhorting, giving with generosity, leading with diligence, and showing mercy with cheerfulness.

"Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good." In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate one to another; in honor prefer one another. Do not lag in diligence; be fervent in spirit, serving the Lord, rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer, contributing to the needs of the saints, and given to hospitality.

"Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don't curse." "Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep." Be of the same mind one toward another and associate with the humble. Repay no one evil for evil. "If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men." Do not seek revenge, but give place to God's wrath, for vengeance belongs to the Lord. If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink, for in doing so, Paul quotes, you will heap coals of fire on his head. "Don't be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."
