“And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.”
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. — believers' incorporation into Christ ('ta Christou Iēsou') entails 'stauroo sarka' (crucifying the flesh), a mystical participation in Christ's cross that severs the flesh's dominion; passion and desire are nailed to the cross, losing operative power.
