Colossians 2:8-17

8See that there be no one who shall lead you away as a prey through philosophy and vain deceit, according to the teaching of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ.

9For in him dwells all the fulness of the 1Godhead bodily;

10and ye are complete in him, who is the head of all principality and authority,

11in whom also ye have been circumcised with circumcision not done by hand, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of the Christ;

12buried with him in baptism, in which ye have been also raised with [him] through faith of the working of 2God who raised him from among the dead.

13And you, being dead in offences and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, he has quickened together with him, having forgiven us all the offences;

14having effaced the handwriting in ordinances which [stood out] against us, which was contrary to us, he has taken it also out of the way, having nailed it to the cross;

15having spoiled principalities and authorities, he made a show of them publicly, leading them in triumph by it.

16Let none therefore judge you in meat or in drink, or in matter of feast, or new moon, or sabbaths,

17which are a shadow of things to come; but the body [is] of Christ.
