Colossians 2
International Standard Version Help
2For I want you to know how much I struggle for you, for those in Laodicea, and for all who have never seen me face to face.G1063G2309G5209G1492G2245G73G2192G4012G5216G2532G1722G2993G2532G3745G3708G3756G3708G3450G4383G1722G4561
2Because they are united in love, I pray that their hearts may be encouraged by all the riches that come from a complete understanding of the full knowledge of the Messiah, who is the mystery of God.G2443G846G2588G3870G4822G1722G26G2532G1519G3956G4149G4136G4907G1519G1922G3466G2316G2532G3962G2532G5547
3In him are stored all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.G1722G3739G1526G614G3956G2344G4678G2532G1108
4I say this so that no one will mislead you with nice-sounding rhetoric.G1161G5124G3004G3363G5100G3884G5209G1722G4086
5For although I am physically absent, I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see how stable you are and how firm your faith in the Messiah is.G1063G1499G548G4561G235G1510G4862G5213G4151G5463G2532G991G5216G5010G2532G4733G5216G4102G1519G5547

Fullness of Life

6So then, just as you have received the Messiah Jesus the Lord, continue to live dependent on him.G5613G3880G3767G3880G5547G2424G2962G4043G1722G846
7For you have been rooted in him and are being built up and strengthened in the faith, just as you were taught, while you continue to be thankful.G4492G2532G2026G1722G846G2532G950G1722G4102G2531G1321G4052G1722G846G1722G2169
8See to it that no one enslaves you through philosophy and empty deceit according to human tradition, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to the Messiah,G991G3361G5100G2071G4812G5209G1223G5385G2532G2756G539G2596G3862G444G2596G4747G2889G2532G3756G2596G5547
9because all the essence of deity inhabits him in bodily form.G3754G1722G846G2730G3956G4138G2320G4985
10And you have been filled by him, who is the head of every ruler and authority.G2532G2075G4137G1722G846G3739G2076G2776G3956G746G2532G1849
11In union with him you were also circumcised with a circumcision performed without human hands by stripping off the corrupt nature by the circumcision performed by the Messiah.G1722G3739G2532G4059G4061G886G1722G555G4983G266G4561G1722G4061G5547
12When you were buried with the Messiah in baptism, you were also raised with him through faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead.G4916G846G1722G908G1722G3739G2532G4891G1223G4102G1753G2316G3588G1453G846G1537G3498
13Even when you were dead because of your offenses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with him when he forgave us all of our offenses,G2532G5209G5607G3498G1722G3900G2532G203G5216G4561G4806G4862G846G5483G5213G3956G3900
14having erased the charges that were brought against us, along with their obligations that were hostile to us. He took those charges away when he nailed them to the cross.G1813G5498G1378G2596G2257G3739G2258G5227G2254G2532G142G846G1537G3319G4338G846G4716
15And when he had disarmed the rulers and the authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in the cross.G554G746G2532G1849G1165G1722G3954G2358G846G1722G846
16Therefore, let no one judge you in matters of food and drink or with respect to a festival, a new moon, or Sabbath days.G2919G3361G5100G3767G2919G5209G1722G1035G2228G1722G4213G2228G1722G3313G1859G2228G3561G2228G4521
17These are a shadow of the things to come, but the reality belongs to the Messiah.G3739G2076G4639G3195G1161G4983G5547
18Let no one who delights in humility and the worship of angels cheat you out of the prize by rejoicing about what he has seen. Such a person is puffed up for no reason by his carnal mind.G2603G3367G2603G5209G2603G1722G2309G5012G2532G2356G32G1687G3739G3708G3361G3708G1500G5448G5259G846G4561G3563
19He does not hold on to the head, from whom the whole body, which is nourished and held together by its joints and ligaments, grows as God enables it.182G2532G3756G2902G2776G1537G3739G3956G4983G1223G860G2532G4886G2023G2532G4822G837G838G2316

The New Life in the Messiah

20If you have died with the Messiah to the basic principles of the world, why are you submitting to its decrees as though you still lived in the world -G3767G1487G599G4862G5547G575G4747G2889G5101G5613G2198G1722G2889G1379
21"Don't handle this! Don't taste or touch that!"G680G3361G1089G3366G2345G3366
22All of these things will be destroyed as they are used, because they are based on human commands and teachings.G3739G3956G2076G1519G5356G671G2596G1778G2532G1319G444
23These things have the appearance of wisdom in promoting self-made religion, humility, and harsh treatment of the body, but they have no value against self-indulgence.220G3748G2192G3303G2076G3056G4678G1722G1479G2532G5012G2532G857G4983G3756G1722G5100G5092G4314G4140G4561
