Part 12: Chapter 4:1-7 “Our Adoption As Children of God”

Wednesday, January 17th, 2024

Galatians 4:1-7:

[1] I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no different from a slave, though he is the owner of everything,

[2] but he is under guardians and managers until the date set by his father.

[3] In the same way we also, when we were children, were enslaved to the elementary principles of the world.

[4] But when the fullness of time had 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 you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.
