The Advent Warning.
Fresh servings for the flesh, this Advent. 😑😟
Collossions 2.
Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 And having plundered principalities and powers, He made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Let no one therefore judge you in food, or in drink, or with respect to a holy day, or the new moon, or the sabbath days:
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
18 Let no one beguile you of your reward in a pretended humility and worshiping of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 And not holding to the Head, from which all the body by joints and ligaments having nourishment supplied, and knit together, increases with the increase of God.
20 Therefore if you are dead with Christ from the principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, are you subject to ordinances,
21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Which are all to perish with the consumption;) according to the commandments and doctrines of men?
23 Which things have indeed a show of wisdom in excessive piety, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not of any value but serve to the satisfying of the flesh.
---------------------------------------------------------------
They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
