Galatians 4 of the NIV Bible explains that believers are no longer subservient but are adopted children and heirs of God, freed from the constraints of the law and elemental forces. The author, Paul, expresses concern for the Galatians who are seemingly reverting to old ways, urging them to embrace their newfound freedom in Christ. He then uses the allegory of Hagar and Sarah to illustrate the contrast between slavery to the law and the freedom found through God's promise, reinforcing the message that believers are children of the promise, not of the slave woman. This chapter aims to solidify the understanding of spiritual sonship and liberty in the Christian faith.
