Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.
The positive center of the chapter is not mere restraint but union with Christ expressed in conduct: put on the Lord Jesus and stop feeding the flesh.
This verse ends the chapter with its strongest exhortation and its clearest remedy.
11And do this, understanding the occasion. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. 12The night is nearly over; the day has drawn near. So let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. 13Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy. 14Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.
