Galatians 4:1-5 ▼

1 But I say that so long as the heir is a child, he differeth nothing from a bondservant, though he is lord of all;

2 but is under guardians and stewards until the term appointed of the father.

3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the rudiments of the world:

4 but when the fulness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

5 that he might redeem them which were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
