Bible Minute: Our Reasonable Service

In Romans 12 we read that the believer is to present his body to God which is his reasonable service to God. Unless we distinguish between salvation by Grace and service, or discipleship, we are like to become confused when we read certain portions of holy scripture. We are not called to earn our way not heaven. But because we are already citizens of heaven, we are called to present our bodies to God which is the only reasonable service. Because we are already saved by the shed blood of Jesus Christ we are to abstain from every unholy thing that would hinder our progress and bring dishonor on our Lords holy name. All such service will be rewarded at the judgment seat of Christ.
