\v 1 Therefore, because Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same intention. For whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin.
\v 2 As a result, such a person, for the rest of his time in the flesh, no longer lives for men's desires, but for God's will.

\v 3 For enough time has passed to do what the Gentiles want to do—sensuality, passion, drunkenness, carousing, wild parties, and disgusting acts of idolatry.
\v 4 They think it is strange that you do not join with them in these floods of dissipation, so they speak evil about you.
\v 5 They will give an account to the one who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
\v 6 For this purpose the gospel was preached also to the dead, so that, although they have been judged in the flesh as humans, they may live as God in the spirit.

\v 7 The end of all things is coming near. Therefore be of sound mind, and be sober in your thinking for the sake of prayers.
\v 8 Above all things, have fervent love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins.

\v 10 As each one of you has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's many free gifts.

\v 11 If someone speaks, let it be as the oracles of God, and if someone serves, let it be from the strength that God supplies, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. Glory and power belong to him for ever and ever. Amen.

\v 12 Beloved, do not regard the fiery trial that comes to test you as something strange, as though a strange thing were happening to you.
\v 13 But as much as you experience the sufferings of Christ, rejoice, so that you may also rejoice and be glad at the revelation of his glory.
\v 14 If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and the Spirit of God is resting on you.
\s5
\v 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or a meddler.
\v 16 Yet, if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name.
\s5
\v 17 For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God. And if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey God's gospel?
\v 18 And if

\v 19 Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God entrust their souls to the faithful Creator while they do good.
