All In

THEME: Uncharted

TITLE: All In

Text:  Romans 12: 1-2

 

I.    THE CALL FOR “ALL IN”   

The call is a clarion call for us. “Do not be conformed…but be transformed.”

I don’t think it is a matter of (me having more of God). It is a matter of (God having more of me). It is called (surrender).

Webster= “Total commitment is the alignment of one’s motives, resources, priorities, and goals to fulfill a specific mission, accomplish a specific task or follow a specific person.”

Total commitment means (absolute surrender).

 

II.   THE LIFE OF “ALL IN”   

God doesn’t want us to follow on our terms. Here’s why we can’t:

1)      Because God wants what’s (best for you/me).

2)      Your life either bring (glory or disgrace) to the name of Christ.

Two key words in this verse (Verse 2)

1.      (Conform)- refers to an outward expression that does not reflect what is within.

2.      (Transform)- Greek word is where we get metamorphosis from

What is supposed to change?

1)      Our (mind) changes.  Colossians 1:28; 3:10, 16

2)      Our (will) is given to God.
