Romans 12:2. And be not conformed to this world:
Do not live as men of the world do. Do not follow the customs, the fashions, the principles of the world. "Be not conformed to this world."
Romans 12:2. But be ye transformed
It is not enough to be nonconformists. Be transformed ones, altogether changed into another form.
Romans 12:2. By the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
It is by holy living, by consecrated bodies, that we are to prove the will of God. We cannot know it, we cannot practically work it out, except by a complete consecration unto God.
