He writes: “Therefore since Christ suffered in the flesh, you too arm yourselves with the same mental disposition; because the person that has suffered in the flesh has desisted from sins, to the end that he may live the remainder of his time in the flesh, no more for the desires of men, but for God’s will. ”
Ta kirjutab: „Et nüüd Kristus on kannatanud lihas, siis relvastuge teiegi sama meelega; sest kes lihas on kannatanud, see on lakanud pattu tegemast, nõnda et ta aega, mis tal veel on elada lihas, enam ei ela inimeste himude järgi, vaid Jumala tahtmise järgi. ”
