Galatians 4:1-7

21st Century King James Version

4 Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth in nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all.

² But he is under tutors and governors until the time appointed by the father.

³ Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.

⁴ But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

⁵ to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

⁶ And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba, Father.”

⁷ Therefore thou art no more a servant but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
