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.
