And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit put to death the deeds of the body, you shall live.
Put to death therefore your members which are upon the earth: fornication, uncleanness, unsanctified passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry,
Yea, and all who will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Let us go out therefore to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.
