14For all who are aled by the Spirit of God are bsons ▼
▼See discussion on “sons” in the Preface
 of God. 15For dyou did not receive ethe spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of fadoption as sons, by whom we cry, g“Abba! Father!” 16 hThe Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17and if children, then iheirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, jprovided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

Future Glory

18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time kare not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19For the creation waits with eager longing for lthe revealing of the sons of God. 20For the creation mwas subjected to futility, not willingly, but nbecause of him who subjected it, in hope 21that othe creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22For we know that pthe whole creation qhas been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now.
