for “All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls,

Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul.

For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit,

Stewards of God's Grace

Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human passions but for the will of God.

For this is why the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though judged in the flesh the way people are, they might live in the spirit the way God does.
