Colossians 2:8-12

8See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.

9For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,

10and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.

11In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh was put off when you were circumcised by Christ,

12having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
