The Time For Behaving Like The Gentiles Is Past
1 Forasmuch as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he which suffereth in the flesh ceaseth from sin, 2 that he henceforward should live as much time as remaineth in the flesh, not after the lusts of men: but after the will of God. 3 For it is sufficient for us that we have spent the time that is past of the life, after the will of the gentiles; walking in wantonness, lusts, drunkenness, in eating, drinking, and in abominable idolatry.
