Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;

 2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.

 3 Even so we, when we were children, were in ^abondage under the elements of the world:

 4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God ^asent forth his ^bSon, ^cmade of a ^dwoman, made under the law,

 5 To ^aredeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the ^badoption of sons.

 6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

 7 Wherefore thou art no more a ^aservant, but a ^bson; and if a son, then an ^cheir of God through Christ.
