In Galatians 4:1-5, Paul elaborates on his analogy of a child's coming of age to illustrate the spiritual maturation of believers. He contrasts their pre-salvation state with post-salvation, likening them to children and slaves before salvation and to adults and sons after. Paul explains that, like heirs who have no autonomy as minors and are under guardians until a set time, believers were once spiritually immature and enslaved to worldly principles. However, when the divinely appointed "fullness of time" arrived, God sent His Son to redeem those under the law, enabling believers to receive adoption as God's children. This redemption marks their transition from bondage to freedom and maturity in Christ.
