30 Then many who heard him say these things believed in him.31 Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. 32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” 33 “But we are descendants of Abraham,” they said. “We have never been slaves to anyone. What do you mean, ‘You will be set free’?” 34 Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave of sin. 35 A slave is not a permanent member of the family, but a son is part of the family forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.
Jesus purchased our freedom on the cross. When you put your trust in Jesus and follow Him, you are no longer a slave to sin. Jesus breaks the chains that hold you. You can live fully for Jesus. The freedom is real through Jesus. Let your freedom be real in your thoughts, actions, and desires.
