Beware Of Requirements Invented By Humans

12 You have been buried with him in baptism. You were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead. 13 When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions, 14 He blotted out the bond written in ordinances. It was against us and was contrary to us. He has taken it out of the way. He nailed it to the stake.
