In this episode, we are looking at the last section in Colossians chapter 1. Paul warns the Colossians about submitting themselves to teachings of men, and elementary principles, things that have an appearance of wisdom but do not aid in fleshy indulgences.
Colossians 2:20-23
20 If you have died with Christ [p]to the elementary principles of the world, why, as if you were living in the world, do you submit yourself to decrees: 21 “Do not handle, nor taste, nor touch”? 22 Which [q]deal with everything destined to perish with use, which are in accordance with the commands and teachings of men; 23 which are matters having, to be sure, a word of wisdom in self-made religion and self-abasement and severe treatment of the body, but are of no value against fleshly indulgence.
