But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. The fruit of the Spirit is lovey, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law. If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit.

The son that is the heir, as long as he is a child, is no different from a slave though he is the owner of everything. Yet he is under guardians and managers until a date set by his father. When the fulness of time had come, God sent forth his Son so that we might receive adoption as sons. You are no longer a slave, but a son and then an heir through God.
