Galatians 4:6-8
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
6 And because[a] you are sons, God sent-forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts crying-out, “Abba! Father!” 7 So then you are no longer a slave, but a son— and if a son, also an heir through God!
Why Turn Back To Being Slaves Again? I Fear For You
8 But at that time not knowing God, you were-slaves to the ones by nature not being gods.
