Colossians 2:20-23

²⁰If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the world, why, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations ²¹“Do not handle, Do not taste, Do not touch” ²²(referring to things that all perish as they are used) according to human precepts and teachings?  ²³These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are of no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh.
