Colossians 2:5-10
English Standard Version
5 For (A)though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your (B)good order and (C)the firmness of your faith in Christ.
Alive in Christ
6 (D)Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, 7 (E)rooted and (F)built up in him and (G)established in the faith, just (H)as you were taught, abounding (I)in thanksgiving.
8 See to it that no one takes you captive by (J)philosophy and (K)empty deceit, according to (L)human tradition, according to the (M)elemental spirits[a] of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For (N)in him the whole fullness of deity dwells (O)bodily, 10 and (P)you have been filled in him, who is (Q)the head of all rule and authority.
