1 Timothy 4:7-8
New International Version
John 17:3
New International Version
Colossians 2:18-23
New International Version
18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility(A) and the worship of angels disqualify you.(B) Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. 19 They have lost connection with the head,(C) from whom the whole body,(D) supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.(E)
20 Since you died with Christ(F) to the elemental spiritual forces of this world,(G) why, as though you still belonged to the world, do you submit to its rules:(H) 21 “Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!”? 22 These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish(I) with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings.(J) 23 Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility(K) and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence.
Hebrews 12:13-14
New International Version
13 “Make level paths for your feet,”[a](A) so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.(B)
Warning and Encouragement
14 Make every effort to live in peace with everyone(C) and to be holy;(D) without holiness no one will see the Lord.(E)
