John chpt. 8: 28-47.v.
 
 
8:28 Jesus therefore said to them, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as my Father taught me, I say these things.

8:29 He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn't left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him." 8:30 As he spoke these things, many believed in him.
 

8:31 Jesus therefore said to those Jews who had believed him, "If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.
8:32 You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."{Psalm 119:45}
 

8:33 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 ? '"
 

8:34 Jesus answered them, "Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.
 

8:35 A bondservant doesn't live in the house forever. A son remains forever.
8:36 If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.
 

8:37 I know that you are Abraham's seed, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.
8:38 I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have seen with your father."
 

8:39 They answered him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.
8:40 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.
 

8:41 You do the works of your father." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God."
8:42 Therefore Jesus 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.
 

8:43 Why don't you understand my speech ? Because you can't hear my word.
8:44 You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn't stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its father.
 

8:45 But because I tell the truth, you don't believe me.
8:46 Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me ?
8:47 He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don't hear, because you are not of God."
