John 8:31-37

The Son Will Make You Free

31 So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “^aIf you abide in My word, then you are truly My ^bdisciples; 32 and ^ayou will know the truth, and ^bthe truth will make you free.” 33 They answered Him, “^aWe are Abraham’s seed and have never yet been enslaved to anyone. How is it that You say, ‘You will become free’?”
34 Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, ^aeveryone who commits sin is the slave of sin. 35 ^aAnd the slave does not remain in the house forever; ^bthe son does remain forever. 36 So if the Son ^amakes you free, you will be free indeed. 37 I know that you are ^aAbraham’s seed; yet ^byou are seeking to kill Me, because My word ¹has no place in you.
