I didn't realize there was a problem with Coll. 2. My bad.

There were questions regarding secondary issues and problems related to the Law of Ordinances and Ceremonies. This was addressed in Coll. 2. The law of O&C was nailed to the cross because its purpose was over. It concerned material things such as meats, drinks and washings. It also mentions sabbaths but you being a pastor probably knew there were two additional sabbaths added to Mosaic law already and those are now abolished. The Mosaic Law foretold the Messiah coming and it was of no use after He arrived.
The abolishment of the Law of O&C has no bearing on the eternal Ten Commandments. I can clarify the differences two distinct laws if are out of your depth here.

Yes, Paul is clearly talking about the OT ceremonial law. Look at Ezekiel 45:17

Ezekiel 45:17 King James Version (KJV)

17 And it shall be the prince’s part to give burnt offerings, and meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the new moons, and in the sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel: he shall prepare the sin offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering, and the peace offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the 7th day Sabbath. I might also add that Col 2 is used to justify eating pork and other unclean meats. Nothing could be further from the truth. “let no one judge you in meat or drink” clearly refers to meat OFFERINGS and drink OFFERINGS, OT Ceremonial law, which was nailed to the cross at Christ’s death.
