What position do believers now have in relation to being under tutors?
Believers are no longer little children under tutors. They now have a full-blown position as the final tutored son and are no longer servants, slaves, or sons still being tutored. Instead, they are sons and full heirs. This is their present standing as believers.
Les explains that believers are no more a little kid under tutors now as believers. They are in a full-blown position as the final tutored son of these parents. He says, "Wherefore you're no more a servant, or a slave, or a son still being tutored, but a son, a full heir." The souvenir-store story illustrates this: the young boy had become a full partner in the business, and the father let him operate even though he was up against a pretty good bargainer.
Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
