Galatians 3:26-29, NIV
..are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus..are all one in Christ Jesus.
Galatians 3:26-29, GNB
[26]It is through faith that all of you are God’s children in union with Christ Jesus.
[27]You were baptized into union with Christ, and now you are clothed, so to speak, with the life of Christ himself.
[28]So there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles, between slaves and free people, between men and women; you are all one in union with Christ Jesus.
[29]If you belong to Christ, then you are the descendants of Abraham and will receive what God has promised.
Galatians 4:1-20, NIV
Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father. ” So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir (vs 6-7, NIV).
Galatians 4:1-20, GNB
[1]But now to continue — the son who will receive his father’s property is treated just like a slave while he is young, even though he really owns everything.
[2]While he is young, there are men who take care of him and manage his affairs until the time set by his father.
[3]In the same way, we too were slaves of the ruling spirits of the universe before we reached spiritual maturity.
[4]But when the right time finally came, God sent his own Son. He came as the son of a human mother and lived under the Jewish Law,
[5]to redeem those who were under the Law, so that we might become God’s sons and daughters.
[6]To show that you are his sons and daughters, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who cries out, “Father, my Father.”
[7]So then, you are no longer a slave but a son or daughter. And since that is what you are, God will give you all that he has for his heirs.
[8]In the past you did not know God, and so you were slaves of beings who are not gods.
[9]But now that you know God — or, I should say, now that God knows you — how is it that you want to turn back to those weak and pitiful ruling spirits? Why do you want to become their slaves all over again?
[10]You pay special attention to certain days, months, seasons, and years.
[11]I am worried about you! Can it be that all my work for you has been for nothing?
[12]I beg you, my brothers and sisters, be like me. After all, I am like you. You have not done me any wrong.
[13]You remember why I preached the gospel to you the first time; it was because I was ill.
[14]But even though my physical condition was a great trial to you, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you received me as you would an angel from heaven; you received me as you would Christ Jesus.
[15]You were so happy! What has happened? I myself can say that you would have taken out your own eyes, if you could, and given them to me.
[16]Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth?
[17]Those other people show a deep interest in you, but their intentions are not good. All they want is to separate you from me, so that you will have the same interest in them as they have in you.
[18]Now, it is good to have such a deep interest if the purpose is good — this is true always, and not merely when I am with you.
[19]My dear children! Once again, just like a mother in childbirth, I feel the same kind of pain for you until Christ’s nature is formed in you.
[20]How I wish I were with you now, so that I could take a different attitude towards you. I am so worried about you!
