Galatians 4:6-11

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

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

Paul’s Concern for the Galatians 8Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods. 9But now that you know God—or rather are known by God—how is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable forces Or principles ? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again? 10You are observing special days and months and seasons and years!

11I fear for you, that somehow I have wasted my efforts on you.
