Galatians 4

<< Galatians 4 >>
King James Bible with Strong's Numbers
 

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 15 Where is then the blessedness ye spake of for I bear you record that if it had been possible ye would have plucked out your own eyes and have given them __ to me 16 Am I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth 17 They zealously affect you but not well yea they would exclude you that ye might affect them 18 But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing and not only when I am present with you 19 My little children of whom I travail in birth again until __ Christ be formed in you 20  I desire to be present with you now and to change my voice for I stand in doubt of you

21 Tell me ye that desire to be under the law do ye not hear the law 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons the one by a bondmaid __ the other by a freewoman 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh but he of the freewoman was by promise 24 Which things are an allegory for these are the two covenants the one __ from the mount Sinai which gendereth to bondage which is Agar 25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia and answereth to Jerusalem which now is and is in bondage with her children 26 But Jerusalem which is above is free which is the mother of us all

27 For it is written Rejoice thou barren that bearest not break forth and cry thou that travailest not for the desolate hath many more children than __ she which hath an husband

28 Now we brethren as Isaac was are the children of promise 29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit even ">so it is now

30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture Cast out the bondwoman and her son for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman

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