Colossians 2:12-14

Worldwide English (New Testament)

¹² You were buried with Christ when you were baptised. You were also raised with him to a new life when you were baptised. You were raised because you believed in the power of God who raised Christ from death.

¹³ You were dead because of the wrong things you had done, and because your lives had not been made clean. But God gave you life with Christ. He forgave you for all the wrong things you did.

¹⁴ He wiped out all the things that were written against us in the laws. He took the writing away and nailed it to a cross.
