Galatians 4:26-5:1
New King James Version
26 but the (A)Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all. 27 For it is written:
(B)“Rejoice, O barren,
You who do not bear!
Break forth and shout,
You who are not in labor!
For the desolate has many more children
Than she who has a husband.”
28 Now (C)we, brethren, as Isaac was, are (D)children of promise. 29 But, as (E)he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, (F)even so it is now. 30 Nevertheless what does (G)the Scripture say? (H)“Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for (I)the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.” 31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.
Christian Liberty
5 (J)Stand[a] fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a (K)yoke of bondage.
