Galatians 4:4-7 proclaims the fulfillment of Scripture through the coming of Jesus Christ. At the appointed time, God sent His Son, born of a woman and under the law, to redeem those enslaved by it. This act of God’s grace not only brings redemption but also grants believers adoption into God’s family. Through Jesus, believers are no longer slaves but children of God, reflecting a profound shift in spiritual identity—from bondage to freedom.
As God’s children, believers are heirs to His promises, receiving the full inheritance of God’s kingdom. The Holy Spirit affirms this relationship by moving believers to cry out, "Abba, Father," symbolizing deep intimacy with God. This passage offers hope and renewal, reminding believers that they are fully accepted and loved by God, freed from spiritual slavery, and empowered to live as His sons and daughters in freedom in Christ.
