In the very next verse we are told, "whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus." Notice it says to "do all". Everything we do in religion is to be done in the name of the Lord Jesus. To "do all in the name of the Lord Jesus" means that we must do everything by His authority.

Gibbon, Edward: History of Christianity "If Paganism was conquered by Christianity, it is equally true that Christianity was corrupted by Paganism.

Many of the pagan tenets, invented by the Egyptians and idealized by Plato, were retained as being worthy of belief.
