Galatians 4:7-10 Freedom in Christ

7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.

8 Paul’s Concern for the Galatians
Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.

9 But now that you know God—or rather are known by God—how is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable principles? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?

10 You are observing special days and months and seasons and years!
