Galatians 3:27-Galatians 4:7 - Sons And Heirs

²⁷ Indeed, all of you who were baptized into the Messiah have clothed yourselves with the Messiah. ²⁸ Because all of you are one in the Messiah Jesus, a person is no longer a Jew or a Greek, a slave or a free person, a male or a female. ²⁹ And if you belong to the Messiah, then you are Abraham's descendants indeed, and heirs according to the promise.

¹ Now what I am saying is this: As long as an heir is a child, he is no better off than a slave, even though he owns everything. ² Instead, he is placed under the care of guardians and servant managers until the time set by the father. ³ It was the same way with us. While we were children, we were slaves to the basic principles of the world. ⁴ But when the appropriate time had come, God sent his Son, born by a woman, born under the Law, ⁵ in order to redeem those who were under the Law, and thus to adopt them as his children. ⁶ Now because you are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts to cry out, "Abba! Father!" ⁷ So you are no longer a slave but a child, and if you are a child, then you are also an heir because of what God did.
