This study examines the Apostle Paul's vision of λογικός (logikos) worship in Romans 12:1-2 as a theologically rich and integrative expression of sacrificial self-offering and transformative renewal, rooted in union with the crucified, resurrected, and exalted Christ. Despite the centrality of worship in Pauline theology, scholarly treatments have often fragmented Paul's sacrificial and transformative language, interpreting it through Greco-Roman philosophy, Second Temple Judaism, or ethical paradigms. This study identifies a critical gap: the lack of an integrative reading that situates Paul's vision of worship within his theology of ἐν Χριστῷ (en Christo).The study conducts a biblical-theological exegesis of key Pauline texts, situating Paul's sacrificial and transformative motif of worship within its broader canonical, historical, and theological context. It argues that Paul reconfigures Old Testament sacrificial and renewal motifs (e.g., Levitical cultic practices, Psalm 51, Jeremiah 31, and Ezekiel 36), not merely as typological antecedents but as realities fulfilled and reinterpreted through Christ's atoning work and the believers' incorporation into Him. In doing so, Paul presents a vision of worship that transcends temple ritual and ethical formalism, relocating worship into the embodied life of the believer, who becomes a living sacrifice and participant in Christ's narrative.The study further explores how Paul engages and reorients Second Temple Jewish sacrificial traditions and Greco-Roman philosophical ideas regarding reason, virtue, and self-discipline. Rather than deriving his theology from these sources, Paul critically appropriates and subverts them through the lens of ἐν Χριστῷ (en Christo). This Christocentric reinterpretation yields a vision of λογικός (logikos) worship that is both rational and relational, sacrificial and transformative, inwardly renewing and outwardly embodied.Ultimately, the study demonstrates that Paul's vision of λογικός (logikos) worship unfolds across five interrelated dimensions: soteriological, Christological, pneumatological, ecclesiological, and eschatological, all of which converge in the believers' union with the crucified, resurrected, and exalted Christ. Far from being peripheral or merely metaphorical, λογικός (logikos) worship emerges as a key and defining expression of Paul's theology of redeemed life in Christ: a cruciform and Christoform, Spirit-led life, formed into the image of Christ, sustained within the ecclesial body, and oriented toward the consummation of new creation.
