¹⁵ For you ^(A)have not received a spirit of slavery ^[a]leading to fear again, but you ^(B)have received ^[b]a spirit of adoption as sons and daughters by which we cry out, “^(C)Abba! ^[c]Father!” ¹⁶ The Spirit Himself ^(D)testifies with our spirit that we are ^(E)children of God, ¹⁷ and if children, ^(F)heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, ^(G)if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.

¹³ In ^[a]Him, ^[b]you also, after listening to ^(A)the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also ^[c]believed, you were ^(B)sealed in ^[d]Him with ^(C)the Holy Spirit of the promise, ¹⁴ who is a ^(D)first installment of ^(E)our inheritance, in regard to the ^(F)redemption of ^(G)God’s own possession, ^(H)to the praise of His glory.

¹⁰ The one who believes in the Son of God ^(A)has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has ^(B)made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son. ¹¹ And the testimony is this, that God has given us ^(C)eternal life, and ^(D)this life is in His Son. ^12 (E)The one who has the Son has the life; the one who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.

This Is Written That You May Know

^13 (F)These things I have written to you who ^(G)believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have ^(H)eternal life.
