As we turn our minds to the book of Romans, let us prepare by looking at some related passages from the New Testament:* Philippians 1
* I Corinthians 2
* II Corinthians 3
Do you hear any themes that are playing out in all these passages? Does Paul seem to be repeating himself at any point? What might that indicate about how important he thinks these ideas are?
Finally turn and read Romans 12:1-2...do you hear anything different in this passage than the ones we looked at above? What do you think the core of Paul's message about the kingdom may be? What does that mean for us today? How does my life have to be different because I beieve God's word to be true?
