John 8:31-37

31So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, "If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples,

32and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

33They answered him, "We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, 'You will become free'?"

34Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who practices sin is a slave to sin.

35The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever.

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

37I know that you are offspring of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me because my word finds no place in you.
