Warning Against Philosophies and Deceit

Colossians 2:8-12

8  Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 
9  For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 
10  And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: 
11  In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: 
12  Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
