Galatians 4:1-7 (NIV)

1 What I am saying is that as long as an heir is a child, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. 2 He is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father. 3 So also, when we were children, we were in slavery under the basic principles of the world. 4 But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law, 5 to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights as sons. 6 Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.” 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.


Galatians 3:8 (NIV)

8 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.


The law provided supervision, rules and regulations.


Galatians 4:4-5 (NIV)

4 But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law, 5 to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights as sons.


Galatians 4:6 (NIV)

6 Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.”


The law has been put away.
