Colossians 2:4-12 (CJB) | TrulyRandomVerse

4

I say this so that no one will fool you with plausible but specious arguments.

5

For although I am away from you physically, I am with you in spirit, rejoicing as I see the disciplined and resolute firmness of your trust in the Messiah.

6

Therefore, just as you received the Messiah Yeshua as Lord, keep living your life united with him.

7

Remain deeply rooted in him; continue being built up in him and confirmed in your trust, the way you were taught, so that you overflow in thanksgiving.

8

Watch out, so that no one will take you captive by means of philosophy and empty deceit, following human tradition which accords with the elemental spirits of the world but does not accord with the Messiah.

9

For in him, bodily, lives the fullness of all that God is.

10

And it is in union with him that you have been made full — he is the head of every rule and authority.

11

Also it was in union with him that you were circumcised with a circumcision not done by human hands, but accomplished by stripping away the old nature’s control over the body. In this circumcision done by the Messiah,

12

you were buried along with him by being immersed; and in union with him, you were also raised up along with him by God’s faithfulness that worked when he raised Yeshua from the dead.
