Bible. Colossians
51:002:010 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all
principality and power:
51:002:011 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made
without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the
flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
51:002:012 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him
through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him
from the dead.
51:002:013 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of
your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having
forgiven you all trespasses;
51:002:014 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against
us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way,
nailing it to his cross;
51:002:015 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew
of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
51:002:016 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in
respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath
days:
51:002:017 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of
Christ.
51:002:018 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility
and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which
he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
51:002:019 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints
and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together,
increaseth with the increase of God.
51:002:020 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the
world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to
ordinances,
51:002:021 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
51:002:022 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the
commandments and doctrines of men?
51:002:023 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and
humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the
satisfying of the flesh.
51:003:001 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are
above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
51:003:002 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the
earth.
51:003:003 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
51:003:004 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also
appear with him in glory.
51:003:005 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth;
fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil
concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
51:003:006 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children
of disobedience:
51:003:007 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
