Dying to (Not) Get Even
The desire for retaliation and revenge is built in to every person because of sin. It started in the Garden of Eden, where Adam tried to get revenge against Eve by blaming her. And it escalated when Cain retaliated against Abel by murder. But God has a different plan for those who will be a living sacrifice. God says, "You be loving and let me handle the outcome."

Dying to Love
Paul's call to be a living sacrifice is not a call to some theoretical way of life. It is a call to love others in concrete ways. After talking about the use of spiritual gifts in vv. 3-8, Paul now talks about the spiritual fruit of love in vv. 9-16

The Key to Effective Intercession: A Living Sacrifice
V. Living Sacrifice - A Biblical Truth • As Christians, we're called to give ourselves to God as a "living sacrifice." • I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (Romans 12:1-2) VI. Living Sacrifice - Dying to Self • How do we truly present ourselves to God as a living sacrifice? 1. We must die to our prior selves.
