Sons & Heirs
Sons & Heirs
Series: Midweek Bible Study
Scripture: Galatians 4:1-7
“Galatians 4:1 I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no different from a slave, though he is the owner of everything, Galatians 4:2 but he is under guardians and managers until the date set by his father. Galatians 4:3 In the same way we also, when we were children, were enslaved to the elementary principles of the world. Galatians 4:4 But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, Galatians 4:5 to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. Galatians 4:6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” Galatians 4:7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.” (Galatians 4:1–7 ESV)
