Through God the Christian is no longer a slave but a son, and if a son then

Through God the Christian is no longer a slave but a son, and if a son then he is an heir. This statement is based on the teachings of the Bible, particularly in the New Testament where it explains that when one accepts Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, they become adopted into God's family and are no longer slaves to sin but are considered children of God. As a child of God, one becomes an heir of God's kingdom and is entitled to inherit the blessings and promises of God. This inheritance includes eternal life, forgiveness of sins, peace, joy, and all the spiritual blessings in Christ Jesus.
