"Like obedient children, do not comply with the evil urges you used to follow in your ignorance,"
— 1 Peter 1:14, NET Bible
“As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:”
“as children of obedience, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in the time of your ignorance: ”
“as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,”
“As children of obedience, not fashioned according to the former desires of your ignorance,”
“Like children ruled by God, do not go back to the old desires of the time when you were without knowledge:”
“As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:”
They probed into what person or time the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating when he testified beforehand about the sufferings appointed for Christ and his subsequent glory.
They were shown that they were serving not themselves but you, in regard to the things now announced to you through those who proclaimed the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven– things angels long to catch a glimpse of.
Therefore, get your minds ready for action by being fully sober, and set your hope completely on the grace that will be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed.
Like obedient children, do not comply with the evil urges you used to follow in your ignorance,
but, like the Holy One who called you, become holy yourselves in all of your conduct,
for it is written,“You shall be holy, because I am holy.”
And if you address as Father the one who impartially judges according to each one’s work, live out the time of your temporary residence here in reverence.
