John 8:24-34

24 I said therefore unto you that ye shall die in your sins; for if ye believe not that I am He, ye shall die in your sins."

25 Then they said unto Him, "Who art thou?" And Jesus said unto them, "Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.

26 I have many things to say and to judge of you, but He that sent Me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of Him."

27 They understood not that He spoke to them of the Father.

28 Then said Jesus unto them, "When ye have lifted up the Son of Man, then shall ye know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father hath taught Me, I speak these things.

29 And He that sent Me is with Me. The Father hath not left Me alone, for I do always those things that please Him."

30 As He spoke those words, many believed in Him.

31 Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed in Him, "If ye continue in My Word, then are ye My disciples indeed.

32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

33 They answered Him, "We are Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man. How sayest thou, `Ye shall be made free'?"

34 Jesus answered them, "Verily, verily I say unto you, whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
