歌罗西书2:6-12
6你们既然接受了主基督耶稣，就当遵他而行。7在他里面生根建造，信心坚固，正如你们所领的教训，感谢的心也更增长了。8你们要谨慎，恐怕有人用他的理学，和虚空的妄言，不照着基督，乃照人间的遗传，和世上的小学，就把你们掳去。9因为神本性一切的丰盛，都有形有体的居住在基督里面。10你们在他里面也得了丰盛。他是各样执政掌权者的元首。11你们在他里面，也受了不是人手所行的割礼，乃是基督使你们脱去肉体情欲的割礼。12你们既受洗与他一同埋葬，也就在此与他一同复活。都因信那叫他从死里复活神的功用。
6And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to follow him. 7Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness. 8Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers#2:8 Or the spiritual principles; also in 2:20. of this world, rather than from Christ. 9For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body.#2:9 Or in him dwells all the completeness of the Godhead bodily. 10So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority. 11When you came to Christ, you were “circumcised,” but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision—the cutting away of your sinful nature.#2:11 Greek the cutting away of the body of the flesh. 12For you were buried with Christ when you were baptized. And with him you were raised to new life because you trusted the mighty power of God, who raised Christ from the dead.
