John 8:28–36
28Jesus therefore said to them,“When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as my Father taught me, I say these things.↗
29He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn’t left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.”↗
30As he spoke these things, many believed in him.↗
31Jesus therefore said to those Jews who had believed him,“If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.↗
32You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”↗
33They answered him, “We are Abraham’s offspring, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How do you say,‘You will be made free’?”↗
34Jesus answered them,“Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.↗
35A bondservant doesn’t live in the house forever. A son remains forever.↗
36If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.↗
