Set Free: Freed from Slavery to Adoption

God wanted to make us into children who wanted to obey. He didn’t want us to remain as slaves who were forced to obey. So, He redeemed us—Jesus was born under the law, so He could live the life we were supposed to live, and die the death we were condemned to die. In doing so, He brought us out of the bondage and slavery of sin and made us sons and daughters or heirs of God.
