Jesus
answered them, “Truly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave. But the
slave doesn’t stay in the house forever; the son stays forever. So, if the Son
makes you free, you will be really free.
I know
that you are the descendants of Abraham; yet you want to kill me because my
word finds no place in you. For my part, I speak of what I have seen in my
Father’s presence, but you do what you have learned from your father.”
They
answered him, “Our father is Abraham.” Then Jesus said, “If you were Abraham’s
children, you would do as Abraham did. But now you want to kill me, the one who
tells you the truth—the truth that I have learned from God. That is not what
Abraham did; what you are doing are the works of your father.”
The Jews
said to him, “We are not illegitimate children; we have one Father, God.” Jesus
replied, “If God were your Father you would love me, for I came forth from God,
and I am here. And I didn’t come by my own decision, but it was he himself who
sent me.
