Colossians 2:18-23

18Let no one adisqualify you, binsisting on asceticism and worship of angels, cgoing on in detail about visions,
Or  about the things he has seen
epuffed up without reason by fhis sensuous mind,
19and gnot hholding fast to the Head, from whom the whole body, nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.

20If with Christ iyou died to the jelemental spirits of the world, kwhy, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations 21 l“Do not handle, Do not taste, Do not touch 22( mreferring to things that all perish as they are used)—according to nhuman precepts and teachings? 23These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in opromoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are pof no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh.
