Here are some verses from my crossreference

which is your reasonable service.

4. 1Co 6:19 KJVLite What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost

Spiritual sacrifices in my mind is walking in the Spirit and not in the natural ways of this world. Refusing to submit to those things which Jesus has bought and paid for with His death, Blood and resurrection. Everything that salvation truly means Hebrew word is
ישׁוּעה
yeshû‛âh
Phonetic:
yesh-oo'-aw
- salvation, deliverance
- welfare, prosperity
- deliverance
- salvation (by God)
- victory
Greek word is
σωτηρία
Transliteration:
sōtēria
Phonetic:
so-tay-ree'-ah
rescue or
safety (physically or morally): - deliver, health, salvation, save, saving.
From a primary word σῶς sōs̄ (contraction for the obsolete σάος saos, " safe" ); to
save, that is,
deliver or
protect (literally or figuratively): - heal, preserve, save (self), do well, be (make) whole.

you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul
21)For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps
Blessings of grace and peace be yours in abundance
