Colossians 2:8
“Be careful that you don’t let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.”
The apostle Paul wrote this letter to the believers in Colossae, likely from prison, around 60-62 AD. He was addressing various challenges to their faith, including philosophical speculations and legalistic practices that threatened to undermine the sufficiency of Christ.
