My point though, with Col 2:14 is that God, as some teach did not nail the law to the cross, He nailed our sins to the cross.
But again, if I may ... perhaps there is, but I'm not currently aware of any verse that specifically says that "sins" were nailed to the cross (stake and cross-plank) ... Figuratively, of course, there's truth in what you are saying ... that is, the part figuratively represents the whole, or that which was nailed to the stake and cross-plank is represented by simply saying that "our sins were nailed" ... By the way, instead of the word "sins," I use the word "failings" for the Greek word .
And, speaking of particular words, Colossians 2:14 specifically talks to the noun ...
5498 cheirographon
5495 + 1125 to~a~handwriting N-ASN.20
which is a combination-word of the verb "to write" and the noun "hands" ...
5495 cheiras to~hands
1125 graphein to write
That is, it was this handwriting, with its "suppositions against' us" that was nailed unto the stake ...
1378 dogmasin unto~suppositions ...
Said "suppositions" being from the noun "dokeO" = to think
That is, suppositions are, in other words, conclusions; principles; propositions; ordinances; decrees
2:14 to~the handwriting (with~the suppositions against’ us), having out-rubbed (which~an under-innerly-opposing [handwriting] it was unto~us); and, to~same [handwriting] He has had lifted out of~the amidst; to~the same [handwriting] having towards-nailed unto~the stake;
Sorry ...I'm belaboring the point ...I agree (sort of), with what you are saying,
I just think you could be saying it more accurately. But since you are saying it, in your own manner,
perhaps I could take similar license, when talking about this ...
When they nailed Christos (the Anointed/Christ), our Lord to that stauros (stake and cross-plank),
they also nailed a placard above His head ... basically, this was the Roman's acknowledgment of the crime committed, as well as the verdict ... guilty of daring to be King ... sedition.
What Colossians is alluding to, is basically another such placard, acknowledging the crime and verdict ...
God's law is summarized as 1) to love God and 2) to love our fellow man.
Adam failed, and so we are all accounted in a similar manner, by God ... worthy of death.
Adam and all of mankind are, then, also nailed there, with our Creator ... to die.
The placard over our head reads guilty; failure to comply with God's law of love ... worthy of death.
When the verdict is carried out, the decrees or suppositions against us are resolved or rubbed out,
seeing as how they have no further effect on the dead ... can't beat a dead horse.
That is, Colossians is talking to just one of the items nailed to the stake ... the verdict, the sentence.
Galatians, on the other hand, is more specific; it identifies ...not only the Anointed, but mankind,
you and I, together-staked with Him. ....And, we then, subsequently died with Him
2:20 With~[the]~Anointed I have had been together-staked; yet, I live. Yet not-still I, [the] Anointed lives in with~me. Yet now, to~which~a [thing] I live, in with~flesh, in with~trust I live (with~the [trust] of~the Son of~the God; the [Son] to~me of~having loved, and Himself having beside-given over me.)
And yet, we live! ... we were roused from death with Him, and He lives in us.
Spiritually this is a fact; this is how God sees it ...
actually, I won't in-slip into the new man, the qualitatively new, spiritual man until our Lord's presence,
but for now I've been graced to hear God's well-message evangel; and given the heart to trust (better word than belief), what God has said, and so I have a great expectation (better word than mere hope).
Furthermore, I have peace with God, and much joy ...
it's all God's doing, that's the evangel's peace;
the joy is my doing ... and talking about this, in my own words, or more formally, in scriptural words,
is what brings me joy ... And I always want more joy, more is better!
