Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

What does Paul mean by this verse?

Paul had been writing the "the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse:"[1] because they had heard of their faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which they had to all the saints, [2]

According to Paul the gospel had been preached in all the world, [3] and faithful servants were ministering to the people.[4] It was for this cause that he hoped they had both understanding and good works. But also talked about them all having been delivered from the darkness and already translated into the kingdom of Jesus Christ.[5]

When he told them they had been translated[6] into the kingdom he was talking about having been removed from the kingdom of darkness.[7]

We the phrase "power of darkness," in the gospel [8] where Luke talked about the Luke the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, [9] who were the government official and the police who came out against Christ and his followers to bring them before the Sanhedrin which was the congress of the day. This was an arrest by government to bring him before that tribunal, that power of darkness and impeach him as an usurper of the throne of Judea.

We see the same metaphor in Acts 26:18 [10] about turning eyes from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan who is the adversary of God. This seems required that God's way be sought to receive forgiveness and inherit through the sanctification by faith.

And again in Ephesians 6:12 we see the metaphor one more time speaking of rulers and powers of darkness.[11]

Paul goes on and talks about the blood of Jesus Christ redeeming them with his own blood. [12] He goes on to say that Jesus was the first born of every creature.[13] The word "creature" is the word for "the act of founding, establishing"[14] It came from a word meaning create or make habitable for a people.[15]

Paul also talks about Christ as the head of the body or corpus of His appointed Church which like the Church in the Wilderness served the people in congregations.[16]

Christ had called new men to come out and serve the kingdom. To be doers of the word and he said he would take the kingdom from them that had it and give to them whom would bear fruit. And he did that with the words of their own mouth for those who would repent from the alienation of their minds from the ways of God.[17]

What were these wicked works?

The Corban of the pharisees that made the word of God to non effect.


Again Paul speaks of the gospel of the kingdom having been preached to every creature or "institution" and advises that we be not moved away from His gospel.[18]
