My
highlighted verses: Galatians 4:1
Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from
a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 But is under
tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3 Even so
we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
4
But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made
of a woman, made under the law,
5
To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption
of sons.
6
And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into
your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
7
Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an
heir of God through Christ.
8 Howbeit
then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are
no gods.
9
But now, after that ye have known God, or
rather are known of God, how turn ye again
to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
10
Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
11 I am afraid
of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
12 Brethren,
I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at
all.
13 Ye know
how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the
first.
14 And my
temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received
me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
