Colossians 2:16-17

Let No One Disqualify You

16 Therefore let no one ^apass judgment on you ^bin questions of food and drink, or with regard to ^ca festival or ^da new moon or a Sabbath. 17 ^eThese are a shadow of the things to come, but ^fthe substance belongs to Christ.

Colossians 2:20-23

20 If with Christ ^gyou died to the ^helemental spirits of the world, ⁱwhy, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations— 21 ^j“Do not handle, Do not taste, Do not touch” 22 ( ^kreferring to things that all perish as they are used)—according to ^lhuman precepts and teachings? 23 These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in ^mpromoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are ⁿof no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh.
