Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same intention (for whoever has suffered in the flesh has finished with sin), "1 Peter 4:1
One who suffer in body frees himself from sin. When Jesus who has no sin in soul embraces us and whole world, our sins is absorbed onto his body and this caused/brought him sufferings. But his soul was uncorrupted..by suffering,he paid the price for our debts of sins to Lord and freed us from debts of sins by his sacrifice. He freed the soul from slavery of flesh and resurrected in spirit..giving this uncorrupted spirit (holy spirit)to all who believe in him. Thus bringing us to new life in him.. our life is hidden in Jesus(Colossians 3:3)..now "I have been crucified with Christ; 20 and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. " Galatians 2:19-20
"for you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ who is your life is revealed, then you also will be revealed with him in glory. Colossians 3:3-4
Yes when we decrease and Jesus increase to fullness in us ,our soul will also be revealed uncorrupted in perfection. Hence by the power of God..holy spirit crush the passions of flesh and rise in spirit through Jesus in faith.
'Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy he has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, 5 who are being protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you rejoice, even if now for a little while you have had to suffer various trials, 7 so that the genuineness of your faith—being more precious than gold that, though perishable, is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.."1 Peter 1:3-7
