Charles Spurgeon Commentary
"Take heed lest there shall be any one that maketh spoil of you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ: for in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, and in him ye are made full, who is the head of all principality and power:" — Colossians 2:8-10 (ASV)
But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds: And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: (Colossians 3:8–10)
No lies. Such communications are filthy. But you put these things away through your union with Christ in His risen life.
Therefore, abhor them.
Avoid the very appearance of them, and cry for grace to be kept from them, for you have been renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him.
