The Word in Epiphany (John 8)

Sons and Daughters of Light in Jesus, 

We are looking carefully at John 8.  Last week Jesus proclaimed I AM the light of the world. This week he says this truth sets us free, and next will be another important I AM statement. All the while the pharisees are debating him on his marvelous truth claims.  Let us learn what they mean for us as we gather for worship on Sunday!


John 8:31-38


31 Jesus then said to the Jews who had believed in him, “If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”33 They answered him, “We are descendants of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one. How is it that you say, ‘You will be made free’?”

34 Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, every one who commits sin is a slave to sin. 35 The slave does not continue in the house for ever; the son continues for ever. 36 So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed. 37 I know that you are descendants of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you. 38 I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father.”


The Revised Standard Version (Oak Harbor, WA: Logos Research Systems, Inc., 1971), Jn 8:31–38.
