John 8:31-38

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.”

33“We are descendants of Abraham,” they answered him, “and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, ‘You will become free’?”

34Jesus responded, “Truly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.

35A slave does not remain in the household forever, but a son does remain forever.

36So if the Son sets you free, you really will be free.

37I know you are descendants of Abraham, but you are trying to kill me because my word has no place among you.

38I speak what I have seen in the presence of the Father; so then, you do what you have heard from your father.”
