Galatians 3:23–4:7 The Right to Become Children of God

Excerpt

Jesus comes to give us power and authority and freedom — to give us the right to become children of God. There is no power unless it is granted by God — we have no ability to force ourselves into God's family, no power to command him, or to demand from him. But Jesus comes, to give it freely. An invitation into a new family, and it just so happens that the Father of this family is the King of the Universe and the God of the Cosmos.
