John
8
21
Then Jesus said to them again, "I am going away, and you will look for me but will die in your sin. Where I am going you cannot come."
22
So the Jewish leaders began to say, "Perhaps he is going to kill himself, because he says, 'Where I am going you cannot come.'"
23
Jesus replied, "You people are from below; I am from above. You people are from this world; I am not from this world.
24
Thus I told you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins."
25
So they said to him, "Who are you?" Jesus replied, "What I have told you from the beginning.
26
I have many things to say and to judge about you, but the Father who sent me is truthful, and the things I have heard from him I speak to the world."
27
(They did not understand that he was telling them about his Father.)
28
Then Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing on my own initiative, but I speak just what the Father taught me.
29
And the one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do those things that please him."
30
While he was saying these things, many people believed in him.
31
Then Jesus said to those Judeans who had believed him, "If you continue to follow my teaching, you are really my disciples
32
and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
33
"We are descendants of Abraham," they replied, "and have never been anyone's slaves! How can you say, 'You will become free'?"
34
Jesus answered them, "I tell you the solemn truth, everyone who practices sin is a slave of sin.
35
The slave does not remain in the family forever, but the son remains forever.
36
So if the son sets you free, you will be really free.
37
I know that you are Abraham's descendants. But you want to kill me, because my teaching makes no progress among you.
38
I am telling you the things I have seen while with the Father; as for you, practice the things you have heard from the Father!"
39
They answered him, "Abraham is our father!" Jesus replied, "If you are Abraham's children, you would be doing the deeds of Abraham.
40
But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth I heard from God. Abraham did not do this!
