Colossians 2:8-10

I wonder how many of us know we are complete in Him, that we don't need anything else for eternal life? Are we aware of that? I dare say we are not because there's an awful lot of the world we still want yet. There are a lot of things out there we find attractive. There are a lot of thoughts we have that are not in harmony with Christ. There are many things that we say that we shouldn't be saying. We're saying, in effect, I don't need you. But God says through Paul we are complete in Him. Everything that we need for life (this life that John is talking about) is in Him and we don't need to go anywhere else.
