Book 51 : COLLOSIANS - Chapter 002
002:001
That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in
love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of
understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God,
and of the Father, and of Christ
002:002
In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge
002:003
And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing
words
002:004
For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the
spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness
of your faith in Christ
002:005
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk
ye in him
002:006
Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye
have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving
002:007
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain
deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the
world, and not after Christ
002:008
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily
002:009
And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all
principality and power
002:010
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
002:011
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
002:012
And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of
your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having
forgiven you all trespasses
002:013
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
002:014
And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew
of them openly, triumphing over them in it
002:015
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
002:016
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of
Christ
002:017
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
002:018
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
002:019
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
002:020
(Touch not; taste not; handle not
002:021
Which all are to perish with the using;) after the
commandments and doctrines of men
002:022
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
