Galatians 4:7-9
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
7 So you are no longer a slave but a child, and if a child then also an heir, through God.[a]
Paul Reproves the Galatians
8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to beings that by nature are not gods. 9 Now, however, that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly elemental spirits?[b] How can you want to be enslaved to them again?
