“Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for

us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with

the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the

flesh hath ceased from sin;”
1 Peter 4:1 KJV

“That he no longer should live the rest of his

time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the

will of God.”
1 Peter 4:2 KJV

“For the time past of our life may suffice us to

have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we

walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine,

revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:”
1 Peter 4:3 KJV

"Just like He suffered, you have to be willing to suffer.
If I make up in my mind that I’m not going to give into sin, my flesh is going to suffer."

Why is my flesh going to suffer ?

"Because I’m not going to give it what it wants, because those things are contrary to God.

Being "saved" brings suffering because I’m denying what the flesh wants to satisfy it self.
You can not cater to the flesh and satisfy Jesus at the same time.

Flesh/ the fallen nature
 

You need to decide to suffer
You can’t live Holy and give in
to the flesh
