Discipleship and True Freedom

31

Yeshua therefore said to those Judeans who had believed him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.

32

You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

33

They answered him, “We are Abraham’s seed, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How do you say, ‘You will be made free’?”

34

Yeshua answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.

35

A bondservant doesn’t live in the house forever. A son remains forever.

36

If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.

37

I know that you are Abraham’s seed, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.

38

I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have seen with your father.”

39

They answered him, “Our father is Abraham.” Yeshua said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.

40

But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham didn’t do this.

41

You do the works of your father.” They said to him, “We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God.”

42

Therefore Yeshua said to them, “If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I haven’t come of myself, but he sent me.

43

Why don’t you understand my speech? Because you can’t hear my word.
