Not Legalism but Christ

11 In Him you were also acircumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by bputting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ,  
12 aburied with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through bfaith in the working of God, cwho raised Him from the dead.  
13 And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses,
14 ahaving wiped out the1 handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.  
15 aHaving disarmed bprincipalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.  
16 So let no one ajudge you in food or in drink, or regarding a1 festival or a new moon or sabbaths,  
17 awhich are a shadow of things to come, but the1 substance is of Christ.  
18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has1 not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,  
19 and not holding fast to athe Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, bgrows with the increase that is from God.  
20 Therefore, if you adied with Christ from the basic principles of the world, bwhy, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations— 
21 a“Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,”  
22 which all concern things which perish with the using—aaccording to the commandments and doctrines of men?  
23 aThese things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and1 neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.
