‏ Galatians 4:7

v. 7: Paul concludes, you are no longer a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ (Galatians 4:7 a). We are not slaves under the law anymore. By believing in Christ, we become God’s children and heirs, with a right to God’s promises and the hope of eternal life.

These verses show God’s great love. The Father sent His Son to save us. The Son became one of us and suffered for us. The Holy Spirit now lives in believers and helps them pray. Because of Christ, we have the special privilege of being God’s children and receiving His promises. All who truly belong to God through faith are given the Holy Spirit, and all are heirs to His blessings. This is much better than living as a servant under the law.
