He begins with a universal presentation of Christ, and not just Christ, but Christ in us the hope of glory.  But then he turns and becomes very practical in leading us into the genuine experience of such a Christ.  Listen to verses 16 and 17 in Chapter 2,  &#8220;Let no one therefore judge you in eating and in drinking or in respect of a feast or of a new moon or of the Sabbath, which are a shadow of the things to come, but the body is of Christ&#8221;.  Here, he begins to remove things like the law and angels and anything else that represents God to us in an indirect way.  For God&#8217;s desire is that nothing stands between us and Him no matter how good or how religious it may seem.<\/p>\n<div itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/AudioObject\"><meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Colossians (Program #21)\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2025-01-03T06:20:31-05:00\" \/><meta itemprop=\"encodingFormat\" content=\"audio\/mpeg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Colossians (Program #21) - Christ the Body of All Shadows and Christ versus Mysticism\r\n\r\nPaul the Apostle is marvelous in his writing in the book of Colossians.
