Are we Sons and Heirs Through Christ?

Galatians 4:1

Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,

Galatians 4:2

but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.

Galatians 4:3

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

Galatians 4:4

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

Galatians 4:5

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

Galatians 4:6

And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”

Galatians 4:7

Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
