Galatians 4:8
| ← Galatians 4:7 | Galatians 4:8 (KJV) | Galatians 4:9 → |
|---|---|---|
Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
|
Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
|
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?
