34 Jesus replied:I tell you for certain that anyone who sins is a slave of sin!
35 And slaves don't stay in the family for ever, though the Son will always remain in the family.
36 If the Son gives you freedom, you are free!
37 I know that you are from Abraham's family. Yet you want to kill me, because my message isn't really in your hearts.
38 I am telling you what my Father has shown me, just as you are doing what your father has taught you.
39 The people said to Jesus, “Abraham is our father!”Jesus replied, “If you were Abraham's children, you would do what Abraham did.
40 Instead, you want to kill me for telling you the truth that God gave me. Abraham never did anything like that.
