AI-assisted, sourcedColossians 2:16-23Not judged by shadows and rules
About Colossians 2Paul wants their hearts knit together in love and full of understanding of Christ, "In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge," and urges, "As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him." He warns, "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit... and not after Christ. For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily," and they are "complete in him," forgiven, with the handwriting of ordinances nailed "to his cross." So no one is to judge them over meat, drink or holy days, which are "a shadow of things to come," or bind them with rules like "Touch not; taste not; handle not."
