Galatians 4:4-7 Adopted children





Scripture lesson: The Christ event transforms us from “slaves” to adopted children of God. This passage isn't interested in “how” this happens, only that it has happened.

Time to reflect: This is a cause for joy and thanksgiving.




But when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5in order to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as children. 6And because you are children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our* hearts, crying, ‘Abba!* Father!’ 7So you are no longer a slave but a child, and if a child then also an heir, through God.
