The Sacrifice On The Inner Altar | Adejoke Olukuade

What does it truly mean to be a "living sacrifice"? In this profound teaching, Adejoke Olukuade explores the depths of Romans 12:1-2, challenging believers to examine the motives behind their service and worship. Drawing a sharp contrast between "dead works"—religious acts performed for merit or appearance—and a heart truly surrendered to God, this message serves as both a warning and a call to hope. Through personal stories and the biblical example of Abraham and Isaac, we learn that spiritual maturity involves reasoning with God's track record and trusting Him with our "Isaacs"—the things we hold most dear.
