Romans 12:2 Explained

Romans 12:2 in the King James Version of the Bible reads: “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.” This powerful verse speaks to the importance of renewing our minds and being transformed in order to fully understand and live out God’s will for our lives.

The first part of this verse instructs us to “not be conformed to this world.” In other words, we are not to adopt the values, beliefs, and behaviors of the culture around us. This can be challenging in a world that is constantly bombarding us with messages and ideas that are contrary to God’s word. We must be intentional about guarding our hearts and minds and choosing to align ourselves with God’s truth.

The second part of the verse tells us to “be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” This transformation occurs through the power of the Holy Spirit as we immerse ourselves in God’s word and allow it to shape our thinking and beliefs. The word “renewing” implies that our minds were once aligned with the world’s values, but now they are being changed to reflect God’s will for our lives. This process is ongoing and requires a willingness to be teachable and open to the Holy Spirit’s leading.

As we allow our minds to be renewed, we are able to “prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” In other words, we are able to discern and understand God’s will for our lives. This requires an active pursuit of God and a desire to know Him more intimately. It also requires a willingness to surrender our own will and desires in order to fully embrace God’s plan for us.

Ultimately, Romans 12:2 is a call to live differently than the world around us. It is a call to pursue God and to allow Him to transform our minds and hearts so that we can fully understand and live out His will for our lives. It is a call to be intentional about what we allow to influence us and to choose to align ourselves with God’s truth. When we do this, we are able to live in a way that brings glory to God and impacts the world around us for His kingdom.

In summary, Romans 12:2 is a powerful reminder of the importance of renewing our minds and allowing the Holy Spirit to transform us. By doing so, we are able to discern and understand God’s will for our lives and live in a way that brings Him glory. It requires an intentional effort on our part, but the reward is a life lived in alignment with God’s purpose and plan for us.

The new Homosexual Bible- The Queen James Bible

I have came to the realization, for some time now, that when men wants to support their lifestyle they will try to change anything that goes against this, including the infallible Word of God, the Bible which should not be altered. Throughout history where the bible has speak against certain sins men with power and money (the love of which is the root of all evil and by which many has pierce their souls with many sorrows) in order to support their abominable and sinful acts sought to write THEIR OWN interpretations of the HOLY SCRIPTURES. The new Queen James Bible which is a new edition to the King James Bible is one of such interpretation written to support their Homosexual practice.

Heaven or Hell: Which will you choose?

We are living in a society where men’s heart has become desperately wicked, a time when men have forgotten about God and choose to live anyway they please without thinking about the consequences of their actions, but what did the Bible say about this? Is this the way man was created to live, to live without God?

How to Worship God in Spirit and Truth

The bible let us know that God is a jealous God and him only should we serve (Matthew 4:10). We therefore see in the bible that when men and women turned from worshipping the true and living God then his wrath is kindled against them (Jeremiah 19:3-6;23:39-40), why is this so? Because we were created to offer true worship, not from our lips only, but from our heart, unto our creator.
