‏ Romans 8:15

 The spirit of adoption ( πνευμα υιοθεσιας ). See on this term  υιοθεσια, Ga 4:5. Both Jews and Gentiles receive this "adoption" into the family of God with all its privileges. " Whereby we cry, Abba, Father" ( εν η κραζομεν Αββα ο πατηρ ). See Ga 4:6 for discussion of this double use of Father as the child's privilege.
