John 8:27-34

²⁷They did not see that his words were about the Father.

²⁸So Jesus said, When the Son of man has been lifted up by you, then it will be clear to you who I am, and that I do nothing of myself, but say as the Father gave me teaching.

²⁹He who sent me is with me; he has not gone from me, because at all times I do the things which are pleasing to him.

³⁰When he said this a number came to have faith in him.

³¹Then Jesus said to the Jews who had faith in him, If you keep my word, then you are truly my disciples;

³²And you will have knowledge of what is true, and that will make you free.

³³They said to him in answer, We are Abraham's seed and have never been any man's servant: why do you say, You will become free?

³⁴And this was the answer Jesus gave them: Truly I say to you, Everyone who does evil is the servant of sin.
