4:3
So also, when we were children, we were enslaved under the basic principles of the world.
4:4
But when the time had fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
4:5
to redeem those under the law, that we might receive our adoption as sons.
4:6
And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”
4:7
So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, you are also an heir through God.
