Galatians 4:1-7
Sons and Heirs
1 Now I say, [That] the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
1:
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
2:
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
3:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
4:
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
5:
6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
6:
7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
7:
