11In whom you had a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;
12Having been put to death with him in baptism, by which you came to life again with him, through faith in the working of God, who made him come back from the dead.
13And you, being dead through your sins and the evil condition of your flesh, to you, I say, he gave life together with him, and forgiveness of all our sins;
14Having put an end to the handwriting of the law which was against us, taking it out of the way by nailing it to his cross;
15Having made himself free from the rule of authorities and powers, he put them openly to shame, glorying over them in it.
16For this reason let no man be your judge in any question of food or drink or feast days or new moons or Sabbaths:
17For these are an image of the things which are to come; but the body is Christ's.
