Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,

but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.

to redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, Abba, Father!

So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.

Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

and if children, then heirs; heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

After these things the Word of Jehovah came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.

And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your seed after you in their generations, for a perpetual covenant, to be God unto you and unto your seed after you.

Also I have given unto you and your seed after you the land in which you sojourn, all the land of Canaan, as an enduring possession; and I will be their God.

Jehovah is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; You shall uphold my lot.

My flesh and my heart waste away; but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever.

The Portion of Jacob is not like them; for He is the Maker of all things; and Israel is the rod of His inheritance. Jehovah of Hosts is His name.

But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel: After those days, says Jehovah, I will put My Law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

And they shall be My people, and I will be their God.

And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good. But I will put My fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from Me.

Jehovah is my portion, says my soul; therefore I will hope in Him.

Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours:

And you are Christ's, and Christ is God's.

And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.

He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
