Sons and Heirs
[What] I am saying [is that] as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, [although] he is the owner of everything. 2 He is subject to guardians and trustees until the date set by [his] father.
3So also, when we were children, we were enslaved under the basic principles[fn] of the world. 4 But when the time {had} fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under [the] law, 5 to redeem those under [the] law, that we might receive [our] adoption as sons. 6 And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into your[fn] hearts, crying out,“Abba, Father!” 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since [you are] a son, [you are] also an heir of God through Christ.[fn]
