John 8:28-32

28So Jesus said to them, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own. But just as the Father taught me, I say these things.

29The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what pleases him.”

30As he was saying these things, many believed in him.

31Then Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you continue in my word, you really are my disciples.

32You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
