John 8:34-38
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
34 Jesus answered them, “Very truly, I tell you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin.(A) 35 The slave does not have a permanent place in the household; the son has a place there forever.(B) 36 So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed. 37 I know that you are descendants of Abraham, yet you look for an opportunity to kill me because there is no place in you for my word. 38 I declare what I have seen in the Father’s presence; as for you, you should do what you have heard from the Father.”[a](C)
