Colossians 2:11-17, Don't Let Anyone Judge You, Scott Mitchell

Paul addresses the legalism that Gnostics (and anyone who falls into that legalistic camp) were attempting to impose on the Colossian church. He shows how Christ's work of redemption was complete and Christians must understand who they are "in Christ" so they can avoid and resist the legalistic tendencies of false teachers. The application of his teaching is not to let anyone bring judgment or condemnation based on requirements in Moses Law - or anything else that would align with that in principle.
