Romans 8:15 (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up)
The apostle Paul uses the term "adoption" to describe something that was likely familiar to those who lived in Rome and understood Roman law. Secular information shows that those who were adopted under Roman law were considered full members of the families that adopted them and had every right and privilege as those who were naturally born.
