26For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.27For as many as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female; for you all are one in Christ Jesus.29But if you are of Christ, then you are of Abraham's seed, heirs according to promise.

Chapter 4
1But I say, for as much time as the heir is an infant, he differs nothing from a slave, lord of all things which he is.2but he is under guardians and stewards until the appointed time of the Father.3In this way also we, when we were infants, were enslaved under the elements of the world.4But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under law,5so that he might redeem those under the Law, so that we might receive the adoption as sons.6But because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba, Father."7so you are no longer a slave but a son; but if a son, also an heir through God.
