Colossians 2:20-23
Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 If you died with the Messiah(A) to the elemental forces of this world, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations: 21 “Don’t handle, don’t taste, don’t touch”? 22 All these regulations refer to what is destroyed by being used up; they are commands and doctrines of men. 23 Although these have a reputation of wisdom(B) by promoting ascetic practices, humility, and severe treatment of the body, they are not of any value in curbing self-indulgence.[a](C)
