1 Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, you also arm yourselves [with] the same mind, because he who suffered in [the] flesh has ceased from sin,
2 that he no longer should live the remaining time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.
3 For we have spent enough of our past lifetime to accomplish the will of the Gentiles-having walked in wantonness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries.
4 In regard to these, they are surprised that you do not run with them in the same flood of debauchery, reviling you.
5 They will render an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
