Colossians 2:20-23

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁰ Therefore, if you have died with Christ from the principles of the world, why then (as though you lived in the world) do you submit to ordinances such as:

²¹ “Touch not! Taste not! Handle not!”,

²² which all perish with use and are according to the commandments and doctrines of man?

²³ These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom and of voluntary religion and humbleness of mind and of not sparing the body but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.
