1 Peter 4:1-6
1 Christ, therefore, having suffered in flesh, do ye also arm yourselves with the same mind; because he who suffered in flesh has ceased from sin;
2 that ye no longer live the rest of your time in the flesh to the desires of men, but to the will of God.
3 For the time past is sufficient to have wrought the will of the gentiles, having walked in wantonness, lusts, wine-bibbings, revelings, carousings, and impious idolatries;
4 at which they are surprised, since ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you;
5 who shall render an account to Him Who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 For to this end was the Gospel proclaimed even to the dead, that they might, indeed, be judged according to men in flesh, but live according to God in spirit.

48 Consequently, ye are witnesses, and consent to the works of your fathers; because they, indeed, killed them, and ye build their tombs.
49 On this account also the wisdom of God said, 'I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them will they slay, and some will they persecute;
50 that the blood of all the prophets, which has been shed from the founding of the world, may be required of this generation—
51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah who perished between the altar and the house—yea, I say to you, it shall be required of this generation.'
