²⁶for in Christ Jesus ^uyou are all sons of God, through faith. ²⁷For as many of you as ^vwere baptized ^winto Christ have ^xput on Christ. ²⁸^yThere is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave⁷ nor free, ^zthere is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. ²⁹And ^aif you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, ^bheirs according to promise.

Sons and Heirs

4I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no different from a slave,¹ though he is the owner of everything, ²but he is under guardians and managers until the date set by his father. ³In the same way we also, when we were children, ^cwere enslaved to the elementary principles² of the world. ⁴But ^dwhen the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, ^eborn ^fof woman, born ^gunder the law, ⁵^hto redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive ⁱadoption as sons. ⁶And because you are sons, God has sent ^jthe Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” ⁷So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then ^kan heir through God.

Read in Logos
