1 Forasmuch then as Christ suffered in the flesh, you{} arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;
2 that you{} no longer should live the rest of your{} time in the flesh to the desires of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time past may suffice to have worked the desire of the Gentiles, and to have walked in sexual immorality, erotic desires, winebibbings, revelings, carousings, and horrible idolatries:
4 in which they think it strange that you{} do not run with [them] into the same excess of riot, speaking evil of [you{}]:
5 who will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
