1 peter 4:1 therefore since Christ suffered in the flesh arm yourself for the same purpose because he who suffers in the flesh ceases to sin.

interpretation. it is not the rules we have to follow to be a Christian... it is returning a favor. Jesus died for us so that we may live eternally....... we should not be concerned with what is OK to do but what we can do to please God. who gave us his only son. He gave our life with the expectation that out of thankfullness we give him ours.
