3 So we also, when we were children, were held in bondage under the elements of the world.
4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,
5 that he might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of children.
6 And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, 'Abba,{Abba is a Greek spelling for the Chaldee word for 'Father' or 'Daddy' used in a familiar, respectful, and loving way.} Father!'
7 So you are no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
