In reply to your 1/22 post What does the term mean? (fivedoves.com) regarding "He that has suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin," the Lord will chasten one of his believers as a punishment for a sin that they committed or if they have unworthily taken the bread and the wine which represents the body and blood of Christ, and the punishment is so painful that it will cause them to repent and think twice about committing the sin again or it will cause them to never want to repeat the sin again.

1 Corin. 11:27-32, "Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world."
