Audio study from Romans 10 to Romans 13 http://www.hisholychurch.net/kkvv/7thbatch/13-04-07Romans-x3.mp3
V1 You present your bodies as a sacrifice^[1] by performing a reasonable service^[2] through a daily ministration of charity and love provided by the elders and ministers in free assemblies networked as Christ Commanded.
V2 "not conformed^[3] to this world"^[4] because you have allowed your mind^[5] to be transformed^[6] which is repentance.
V4-7 The word translated office is Praxis ^[7] means the things needing to be done like the daily ministration^[8] for all Christians.
V8 "giveth, let him do it with simplicity^[9]; he that ruleth^[10], with diligence^[11]; he that sheweth mercy^[12], with cheerfulness.
V9 "Let love^[13] be sincere. Abhor that which is evil^[14]; cleave to that which is good."
V11 Not slothful in business ^[15] serving^[16] the Lord.
V12-19 is the virtues advice of Christ.
V20-21 are an expression of the physics of righteousness and how it will create the armor of God. Even the Old Testament told us to give drink to our enemy^[17] and prepare the sacrifice of the Red heifer.
Just as covetous has stripped you of your wealth and made you merchandise so shall fervent charity in a daily ministation gives you a choice as elder or minister and repentance will open the door to freedom as you are given a place at the table of righteousness.
Many people abhor the sting of iniquity but not the reward of unrighteousness.

Transformation of believers (12–15:13)

1 ¶ 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.
3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality
14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.
17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
