Colossians 2:18-23

Anderson(i) 18 Let no one gain his purpose in depriving you of the palm by an affected humility and worship of angels, prying into things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 and not holding the head, from which the whole body gathering vigor, and firmly united by joints and bands, increases with the increase of God. 20 If, then, you have died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you submit to ordinances? 21 Touch not, taste not, handle not, 22 (all of which are for the destruction of those who use them,) according to the commandments and teachings of men; 23 and these have a show of wisdom in will-worship and affected humility and neglect of the body, and in no regard for the gratification of the flesh.
