Read it in contextGalatians 4:1–8

1 What I am saying is this: as long as the heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, though he is the owner of everything. 2 He is under guardians and managers until the date set by his father. 3 In the same way we also, when we were children, were enslaved under the elemental forces of the world. 4 But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. 6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba! Father!” 7 So you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then also an heir through God. 8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those that by nature are not gods.
