For whoever has suffered in the flesh [having the mind of Christ] is done with [intentional] sin [has stopped pleasing himself and the world, and pleases God],

    2So that he can no longer spend the rest of his natural life living by [his] human appetites and desires, but [he lives] for what God wills.
