Joseph Meriweather ... member of the body of Christ
Recently the thought came to me that one of the great things a saint of God can do is to sacrifice to do the word and to obey it.
The word sacrifice means - the act of making an offering to a deity; a giving up of something cherished or desired for the word of God.
Romans 12: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.
