In Romans 12, the apostle Paul shows us that a biblical church is rooted in the Gospel and that its people are to be shaped by grace. The chapter’s final verses explore the practical implications of this truth as Paul calls the church in Rome to live out their faith with sincere love and faithful fervency. How can we do so today? Alistair Begg highlights eight characteristics that should mark every Christian as we engage in relationships both within and outside the body of Christ.
3For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. 4For as in one body we have many members,5 and the members do not all have the same function, 5so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. 6Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; 7if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; 8the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads,6 with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.
