Read in context

Colossians 2:7–11 · Berean Standard Bible

7 rooted and built up in Him, established in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

8 See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ.

9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity dwells in bodily form.

10 And you have been made complete in Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.

11 In Him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of your sinful nature, with the circumcision performed by Christ and not by human hands.
