Colossians 2:7 clearly states that we are rooted in Christ, not a set of traditions and rules. Humility is an attitudinal relationship between yourself and God, not between others and yourself. The traditional church does not want to lift up the head, Christ Jesus, but instead wants to worship their own will and ability to act humble, which Paul calls "satisfying of the flesh."
