in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

and ye are complete in him, who is the head of all principality and power:

which are [merely] shadows of things to come: but the body is Christ's.

If then ye have been dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye dogmatically taught,

IF ye then be risen with Christ, seek the things which are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

Mortify therefore your members which are on the earth, fornication, impurity, the vile passion, evil concupiscence, and insatiable desire, which is idolatry:

knowing that from the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye are servants to the Lord Christ.

and Jesus, who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only are my fellow-labourers for the kingdom of God, who have been a comfort to me.

Salute the brethren that are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is at his house.
