Galatians 4: 7
(1526 Tyndale Bible)
Wherfore nowe arte thou not a servaunt/ but a sonne.
yff thou be the sonne/ thou arte also the heyre of god thorowe Christ.

translation: Wherefor, now you are not a servant, but a son. If you are a son, you are also the heir of God through Christ.

summary:

Paul begins by comparing heirs to slaves, as they are under guardians until the set time by their father. Just as children, we were enslaved under the basic principles of the world. But when the time came, God sent His Son to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption as sons. As God’s sons, we are also heirs.

Embrace Your Identity
Recognize and live out your identity as a child of God, understanding the privileges and responsibilities that come with it.

Reject Legalism
Avoid falling into the trap of legalism and instead, embrace the freedom and grace found in Christ.

Cultivate Intimacy with God
Foster a close relationship with God, acknowledging Him as Abba, Father and relying on the Holy Spirit for guidance and strength.

Stand Firm in Freedom
Be vigilant against returning to old ways or beliefs that enslave, and stand firm in the freedom Christ has provided.

In Galatians 4, Paul elaborates on the believer’s journey from slavery under the law to sonship in Christ. He expounds on the concept of spiritual adoption and its implications for our identity and inheritance in Christ. He recalls his relationship with the Galatians and contrasts the stories of Hagar and Sarah to distinguish between slavery under the law and freedom in the promise.

    So much of the Church is committing the error of the Galatians. Took me thirty years to understand where I was bound and find the true freedom Jesus bought.
