God sets the spiritually mature into positions of authority.
Sonship has nothing to do with male or female. It’s about maturity in Christ, and I’ll explain that. The adoption this verse mentions is Eastern adoption rather than Western adoption. In Western adoption, a family adds a child to their family who wasn’t born into their family. We aren’t adopted into God’s family that way. We must be born into God’s family. We must be born again by the flowing water of the Holy Spirit. Only born sons can experience Eastern adoption. In Eastern adoption, a child has come to a level of maturity where the father can give the child responsibility. God sets mature sons (and daughters) into positions of authority. We haven’t yet entered into the event the Bible calls “adoption” yet, but we wait for it with anticipation. “so that He might redeem and liberate those who were under the Law, that we [who believe] might be adopted as sons [as God’s children with all rights as fully grown members of a family]” (Galatians 4:5 Amplified Bible).
