The Truth Will Set You Free
31
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him,
1
"If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples,
32
and you will
2
know the truth, and the truth
3
will set you free."
33
They answered him,
4
"We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, 'You will become free'?"
34
Jesus answered them,
"Truly, truly, I say to you,
5
everyone who commits sin is a slave
[a]
to sin.
35
6
The slave does not remain in the house forever;
7
the son remains forever.
36
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
37
I know that you are offspring of Abraham; yet
8
you seek to kill me because my word finds no place in you.
38
9
I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard
10
from your father."
