Colossians 2:6-13

As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:

Rooted (to take root) and built up (built like a house) in (resting within) him, and stablished (ratified) in the faith (believing), as ye have been taught, abounding ()more than enough) therein with thanksgiving.

Colossians 3:10

10 And have put on the new (new spiritual nature) man, which is renewed (newly made, daily acquiring strength) in knowledge (epignosis: having a true and personal relationship with God, coupled with heeding his advice) after (in parallel motion with) the image (pattern) of him that created him:

Beware of vain philosophy and false information
