Colossians 2:8-12

Be careful that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit based on human tradition,  based on the elements of the world, rather than Christ.  For the entire fullness  of God’s nature dwells bodily  in Christ, and you have been filled by him, who is the head  over every ruler and authority. You were also circumcised in him with a circumcision not done with hands, by putting off the body of flesh,  in the circumcision of Christ,  when you were buried with him  in baptism, in which you were also raised with him  through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
