Galatians 4:1-7
1
I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no better than a slave, though he is the owner of all the estate;
2
but he is under guardians and trustees until the date set by the father.
3
So with us; when we were children, we were slaves to the elemental spirits of the universe.
4
But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law,
5
to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.
6
And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!"
7
So through God you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son then an heir.
