Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Romans 12:3

CRITICAL NOTESRomans 12:3.—Those who possess special gifts must be humble and seek a sober mind.MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Romans 12:3Self-glorified and God-dishonoured.—Self-help is a very good book, well written, containing useful information, and inculcating wise lessons; but it is to be read with caution. The very title may mislead. Self-help must not be divorced from divine help. Self-dependence and self-confidence are needful if the battle of modern existence is to be successfully... read more

CRITICAL NOTESRomans 12:5.—We are knit together in Christ, as the head in the organic life.Romans 12:6.—Prophesying is both foretelling and forthtelling. Hence preaching and expounding make the prophet. We must expound according to the rule of faith. Pleasant doctrines must not have undue prominence. We must take the word of God as a whole, and thus avoid heresies.Romans 12:9. Cleave to that which is good.—κόλλα, glue. Keeping yourselves glued to the good. Hold firmly to the true.Romans... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Romans 12:3

Romans 12:3 Self-Appreciation. I. Every man's view of himself is meant to be a correct deliberate thing, according to the facts of the case neither degrading himself too low, nor vaunting himself too high, but thinking of himself as he really is and as God has been pleased to make him. II. To guide us in such investigations the Apostle gives one single rule "to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith." It is a remarkable expression of his. It is not saying,... read more

DISCOURSE: 1907CHRISTIANS ARE ALL MEMBERS OF ONE BODYRomans 12:4-8. As we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that... read more

Chapter 12I beseech you therefore, brethren ( Romans 12:1 ),Because God has grafted you in, because you are partaking of the fullness of that good tree.

The gospel is reasonable. God said, "Come now, let us reason together, saith the Lord" ( Isaiah 1:18 ).Now, of course, existential... read more

Romans 12:1 . I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God. Under the form of entreaty he now tenderly exhorts them, in return for all the glory of redeeming love, to present their bodies to God, in chastity and in temperance, as temples of the Most High. Herodotus, the Greek priest, confesses that in the festival of Venus, the better sort of folks presented themselves to pay their respects to the goddess, while the lower sort indulged in crimes that cannot be named.

Romans 12:4-5For as we have many members in one body.St. Paul’s view of lifeHow comprehensively he surveys the whole range of human action and conduct! He starts from the consideration of men as constituting “many members in one body,” and he proceeds to direct them in their various offices. He passes in review the private and public duties to which they might be called--ministering, teaching, exhorting, giving, ruling, and obeying; he depicts the spirit of the Christian in business and in... read more
