The language of verse 1 is taken from the Hebrew recorded in Lev 1, the law concerning the whole burnt offering . The sacrifice is consumed entire on the altar, in fire. This offering can only be presented to God by one who is already in right standing with God. Remember the topic of this letter to the Romans is what makes us righteous before God. Now that Paul has established the fact of our righteousness, he is describing what we now go on to do as the only reasonable and logical course: to to lay ourselves down upon God’s altar, and allow His fire (Mat 3:11) to consume us entire, and we spend all that we are–spirit, soul, and body; and all that we have–time, talents, and possessions–in service to our great God. WOW!
