Galatians
Chapters 4:1-6
Revised Version 1885
1But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a bondservant, though he is lord of all;
2but is under guardians and stewards until the term appointed of the father.
3So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the rudiments of the world:
4but when the fulness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
5that he might redeem them which were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6And because ye are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
