9. COL 2:21 "Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!"?

10. COL 2:23 Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self- imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence.

12. COL 2:11 In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ,

30. QUOTE In him there is fullness. His fullness has passed into our emptiness, his righteousness into our sinfulness, his life into our death. R. Kent Hughes, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon. (Kindle Locations 4786-4787)

31. COL 3:4 When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

32. QUOTE On that day, all will see the saints of God for what they really are, not as they merely appear to this world. Paul, the prisoner, an eccentric Jew to the Romans and a worse-than-Gentile traitor to the Jews, will be seen as Paul the apostle, the servant of the King. The Colossians, insignificant ex-pagans from a third-rate country town, will be seen in a glory which, if it were now to appear, one might be tempted to worship. N.T. Wright, Colossians and Philemon, p. 133

38. COL 3:6 Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.

39. COL 1:22 But now he has reconciled you by Christ's physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation--

40. COL 3:7 You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived.

41. COL 3:8 But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.

42. LOVE ALL IN CHRIST COL 3:9-11

43. COL 3:9 Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices

Ge 3:15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel."
