In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. Colossians 2:11-15

Circumcised by the hand of God, buried with Him in baptism, raised to new life by faith, and forgiven of all sin, we are born again! These are the Divine benefits given to us by faith in the finished works of the cross.
Even our enemies have been disarmed so that we can walk in total deliverance and healing in His name. Satan is under our feet, a defeated foe who still tries to make us believe that he is still in power, but he is a liar and even named the father of lies!
Jesus has set us free from the law of sin and death and from the rules, regulations, and traditions that held us in bondage! His word states that if the Son has set us free, we are free indeed!
So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. Colossians 2:16,17
