⁶ that is, the gentiles have become fellow heirs, members of the same body, and sharers in the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.^(A)

²⁶ for in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith.^{(A) 27} As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.^{(B) 28} There is no longer Jew or Greek; there is no longer slave or free; there is no longer male and female, for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.^{(C) 29} And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s offspring,^[a] heirs according to the promise.^(D)

²⁵ And this is what he has promised us,^[a] eternal life.^(A)

³ what we have seen and heard we also declare to you so that you also may have fellowship with us, and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.^(A)

¹⁵ For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a spirit of adoption. When we cry, “Abba!^[a] Father!”^{(A) 16} it is that very Spirit bearing witness^[b] with our spirit that we are children of God,^{(B) 17} and if children, then heirs: heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if we in fact suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.^(C)

¹⁴ in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the gentiles, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.^(A)

⁵ in order to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as children.^{(A) 6} And because you are children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our^[a] hearts, crying, “Abba!^[b] Father!”^{(B) 7} So you are no longer a slave but a child, and if a child then also an heir through God.^[c]

¹⁹ and not holding fast to the head, from whom the whole body, nourished and held together by its ligaments and tendons, grows with a growth that is from God.^(A)

²⁷ Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.^(A)
