Galatians 4:1-7 - No Longer Slaves But Sons And Heirs
1 But I say, that as long as the heir is a child, he differs not from a servant, though he is lord of all, 2 but is under tutors and stewards till the time appointed by the father. 3 So also we, when we were children, were in servitude under the rudiments of the world; 4 but when the fullness of time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 that he might redeem those under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 6 And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 So that you are no longer a servant, but a son; and if a son, also an heir of God.
