John 8:31-39
-
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on 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 be 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.
-
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
-
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
-
37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
-
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
-
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
