John 8:35-38

³⁵A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever. Similarly, you say you are members of God's family because you are descendants of Abraham, but really, because you are like slaves of your sinful desires, you are no longer permanent members of God's family.

³⁶So if you allow me to free you, you will truly be free.

³⁷I know that you are Abraham's descendants. But you are trying to kill me because you are not allowing PRS my message to continue to change your inner being.

³⁸I am telling you what I saw when I was with my Father. But you do the things that you have heard from your father.”
