11. You were also circumcised by him. This wasn’t performed by human hands—the whole body was removed through this circumcision by Christ.
12. You were buried with him through baptism and raised with him through faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead.
13. When you were dead because of the things you had done wrong and because your body wasn’t circumcised, God made you alive with Christ and forgave all the things you had done wrong.
