2
in order to live the remaining time in the flesh, no longer for human desires, but for God's will.
1 Peter 4:2 In-Context
1
Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because whoever suffers in the body is done with sin.
2
As a result, they do not live the rest of their earthly lives for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God.
3
For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry.
4
They are surprised that you do not join them in their reckless, wild living, and they heap abuse on you.
5
But they will have to give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
