to change, to exchange one thing for another, to transform

Rom 12:1 ASV - I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
Romans 6 tells us that as we believe and surrender to his sacrifice by water baptism which is a type of spiritual death to our carnal man .  You see we must see that the only way unto the father is through Jesus and his death .  He is the Lamb that shed his blood for you and I and if we apply the blood of the lamb then the death angel will pass over our house or our bodies .  Exo 12:22 ASV - And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side-posts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.    Hyssop is a very fragrant herb and was also used for medicinal purposes .   The Lord told Moses to Strike the Lintel and the door post with the blood and the hyssop , I believe the door post and the lintel are a type of our hearts and that we receive his death and atonement into our hearts by faith. The hyssop is a very aromatic plant and I believe God is showing us the preciousness of Christ death by this sweet savor as Moses took the hyssop and struck the door post and lintel it released the sweet aroma of the plant and the blood speaking of his precious life for us.   The word says that it pleased God   Isa 53:10 ASV - Yet it pleased Jehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand.  His seed is all that come and fall at his cross and repent , The days of Jesus are prolonged through his people the body of Christ .  Christ is very much alive living through his church.
Exo 12:23 ASV - For Jehovah will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side-posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.

Rom 12:2 ASV - And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  Every time I read this verse I am so happy and blessed by the power of Gods word . Conform or fashioned is  to conform one's self (i.e. one's mind and character) to another's pattern, (fashion one's self according to) 

 Transformed   Greek: metamorphoo

Transfigure:  of believers, Rom 12:2, "be ye transformed," the obligation being to undergo a complete change which, under the power of God, will find expression in character and conduct; morphe lays stress on the inward change, schema (see the preceding verb in that verse, suschematizo) lays stress on the outward (see FASHION, No. 3, FORM, No. 2); the present continuous tenses indicate a process; 2Cr 3:18 describes believers as being "transformed (RV) into the same image" (i.e., of Christ in all His moral excellencies), the change being effected by the Holy Spirit.   Nature itself and I am speaking of Gods nature in his creation tells this wonderful story to us. As you see the word used here is transformed and It can be compared to a caterpillar or worm .  We are born of the loins of Adam of the dust of the earth we are earthy people . But God has a wonderful plan for us that believe.  We are close to the earth like a worm and looking for something,  a change in us. And as we look for this change and seek our creator we climb up to a place higher than the dirt of this earth , and through the creators plan we began to change .
The worm attaches its self to a branch and it begins to change by metamorphose. And this happens in the worm from the inside out a chrysalis begins to form inside the body of this worm or caterpillar always staying attached to the the vine supporting it. And at the appointed time it sheds its skin and   the chrysalis is all you see.  The  chrysalis is a protective shell of Gods protection for the creature as it is transforming from a worm to a butterfly . And at the exact moment of Gods plan it breaks from its first body to become this beautiful creature into newness of life . No more bound by this earth and it fly's away .   Do not love or cherish the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him.  1 John 2:16
For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself].

The cross Jesus spoke of so often is our death ,burial and resurrection .  Taking on the very nature of who Jesus was at his death and his very life in us today.  
Phl 3:8 ASV - Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ,
Phl 3:9 ASV - and be found in him, not having a righteousness of mine own, even that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith:
Phl 3:10 ASV - that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death;
Phl 3:11 ASV - if by any means I may attain unto the resurrection from the dead.

Jhn 1:12 ASV - But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to BECOME! children of God, even to them that believe on his name:  The power of his name ! the character the nature and the complete authority of who he is and he has given to his children , power to overcome it is more than just speaking the name it is your very life your very nature Jesus has made it possible through his blood for you to live a life of victory and with power.

Jhn 1:13 ASV - who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. Here is where the worm comes into this wonderful story, we were born of the loins of Adam born of this fleshly body carnal and lost , born of your natural fathers blood the will of the flesh and under the curse of Adam . But look it says God has made a way for us he takes away our sinful old life and our old nature by his cleansing blood and fills us with his spirit and we become born again .
1Co 15:52 ASV - in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.  This is A wonderful promise to us if we walk in his word and be obedient to his word it will change us it will renew our minds daily.  We walk as Jesus walked

John 1;12    To them gave he the right to BECOME! children of God,  This Become is our daily walk and our salvation is an every day walk and it will be our life's journey it will change us if we continue steadfast in faith .
1Jo 3:2 ASV - Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is.   Manifest in Greek   Greek: phaneroo

Appear, Appearing:
akin to No. 1, signifies, in the Active Voice, "to manifest;" in the Passive Voice, "to be manifested;" so, regularly, in the RV, instead of "to appear." See 2Cr 7:12; Col 3:4; Hbr 9:26; 1Pe 5:4; 1Jo 2:28; 3:2; Rev 3:18. To be manifested, in the Scriptural sense of the word, is more than to "appear." A person may "appear" in a false guise or without a disclosure of what he truly is; to be manifested is to be revealed in one's true character; this is especially the meaning of phaneroo, see, e.g., Jhn 3:21; 1Cr 4:5; 2Cr 5:10, 11; Eph 5:13. 1Co 15:44 ASV - it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.
1Co 15:46 ASV - Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual.
1Co 15:47 ASV - The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.

Col 1:27 ASV - to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is CHRIST IN YOU, the hope of glory:


Jhn 1:14 ASV - And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth.


 1Cor 15:49   And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.


Job 25:6 ASV - How much less man, that is a worm! And the son of man, that is a worm!

Heb 1:10 NASB - And, "YOU, LORD, IN THE BEGINNING LAID THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH, AND THE HEAVENS ARE THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS;
Heb 1:11 NASB - THEY WILL PERISH, BUT YOU REMAIN; AND THEY ALL WILL BECOME OLD LIKE A GARMENT,
Heb 1:12 NASB - AND LIKE A MANTLE YOU WILL ROLL THEM UP; LIKE A GARMENT THEY WILL ALSO BE CHANGED. BUT YOU ARE THE SAME, AND YOUR YEARS WILL NOT COME TO AN END."
Heb 1:13 NASB - But to which of the angels has He ever said, "SIT AT MY RIGHT HAND, UNTIL I MAKE YOUR ENEMIES A FOOTSTOOL FOR YOUR FEET"?
Heb 1:14 NASB - Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?
