       Paul warns us against sinful types of social relations, like sinful types of parties, and sinful types of personal relations, namely sexual immorality. He also warns against any type of problems that could develop at church, or even with unbelievers, like that of fighting and being jealous of one another. Paul said, “But put on the Lord Jesus Christ.” Our goal, our aim, is to become more and more like Christ. We are to model what we feel he would approve of, and to not follow after those things we feel he would disapprove of. And then Paul says, “and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.” There should be no premeditated sin among us, within us. We should not be considering or plotting ways in which we can sin. It is very important that we are keeping careful watch on our minds, and the thoughts that are going through them. As Paul told the Corinthians, we are to “take every thought captive to obey Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5, ESV).
