00:00.000 --> 00:00.880
Chapter 2.

00:01.840 --> 00:06.420
For I would that ye knew what great
conflict I have for you, and for them at

00:06.420 --> 00:12.160
Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen
my face in the flesh, that their hearts

00:12.160 --> 00:17.280
might be comforted, being knit together in
love, and unto all riches of the full

00:17.280 --> 00:21.340
assurance of understanding, to the
acknowledgment of the mystery of God,

00:21.560 --> 00:26.800
and of the Father, and of Christ,
in whom I hid all the treasures of wisdom

00:26.800 --> 00:27.380
and knowledge.

00:27.380 --> 00:32.520
And this I say, lest any man should
beguile you with enticing words.

00:33.260 --> 00:37.320
For though I be absent in the flesh,
yet am I with you in the spirit,

00:37.780 --> 00:42.560
joying and beholding your order,
and the steadfastness of your faith in

00:42.560 --> 00:42.920
Christ.

00:44.240 --> 00:51.020
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus
the Lord, so walk ye in him, rooted and

00:51.020 --> 00:55.560
built up in him, and established in the
faith, as ye have been taught,

00:55.560 --> 00:57.720
abounding therein with thanksgiving.

00:58.640 --> 01:04.380
Beware lest any man spoil you through
philosophy and vain deceit, after the

01:04.380 --> 01:09.220
tradition of men, after the rudiments of
the world, and not after Christ.

01:09.800 --> 01:13.720
For in him dwelleth all the fullness of
the Godhead bodily.

01:14.700 --> 01:19.700
And ye are complete in him, which is the
head of all principality and power,

01:20.080 --> 01:25.220
in whom also ye are circumcised,
with the circumcision made without hands,

01:25.720 --> 01:30.300
in putting off the body of the sins of the
flesh by the circumcision of Christ,

01:31.100 --> 01:36.780
buried with him in baptism, wherein also
ye are risen with him through the faith of

01:36.780 --> 01:40.220
the operation of God, who hath raised him
from the dead.

01:40.940 --> 01:44.800
And you being dead in your sins,
and the uncircumcision of your flesh,

01:45.200 --> 01:49.240
hath he quickened together with him,
having forgiven you all trespasses,

01:49.840 --> 01:54.700
blotting out the handwriting of ordinances
that was against us, which was contrary to

01:54.700 --> 01:58.580
us, and took it out of the way,
nailing it to his cross.

01:59.440 --> 02:04.520
And having spoiled principalities and
powers, he made a show of them openly,

02:04.920 --> 02:06.480
triumphing over them in it.

02:07.340 --> 02:12.940
Let no man therefore judge you in meat,
or in drink, or in respect of an holy day,

02:13.320 --> 02:18.660
or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath
days, which are a shadow of things to

02:18.660 --> 02:18.940
come.

02:18.940 --> 02:21.400
But the body is of Christ.

02:22.440 --> 02:27.640
Let no man beguile you of your reward in a
voluntary humility and worshipping of

02:27.640 --> 02:33.820
angels, intruding into those things which
he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his

02:33.820 --> 02:39.160
fleshly mind, and not holding the head,
from which all the body by joints and

02:39.160 --> 02:44.320
bands, having nourishment ministered and
knit together, increaseth with the

02:44.320 --> 02:45.500
increase of God.

02:46.220 --> 02:50.700
Wherefore, if ye be dead with Christ from
the rudiments of the world, why,

02:51.100 --> 02:55.240
as though living in the world,
are ye subject to ordinances, touch not,

02:55.840 --> 03:00.960
taste not, handle not, which all are to
perish with the using, after the

03:00.960 --> 03:05.880
commandments and doctrines of men,
which things have indeed a show of wisdom

03:05.880 --> 03:11.400
in will-worship, and humility,
and neglecting of the body, not in any

03:11.400 --> 03:13.300
honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
