John 8:26-36

26 many things I have to speak concerning you and to judge, but He who sent me is true, and I -- what things I heard from Him -- these I say to the world.'

27 They knew not that of the Father he spake to them;

28 Jesus, therefore, said to them, `When ye may lift up the Son of Man then ye will know that I am [he]; and of myself I do nothing, but according as my Father did teach me, these things I speak;

29 and He who sent me is with me; the Father did not leave me alone, because I, the things pleasing to Him, do always.'

30 As he is speaking these things, many believed in him;

31 Jesus, therefore, said unto the Jews who believed in him, `If ye may remain in my word, truly my disciples ye are, and ye shall know the truth,

32 and the truth shall make you free.'

33 They answered him, `Seed of Abraham we are; and to no one have we been servants at any time; how dost thou say -- Ye shall become free?'

34 Jesus answered them, `Verily, verily, I say to you -- Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin,

35 and the servant doth not remain in the house -- to the age, the son doth remain -- to the age;

36 if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free.
