Truth of the Word Frees Us

John 8:31-36 
31 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” .. 34 Jesus answered them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. 36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

Living in God's word means to hear and trust God is absolutely true. This reveals His truth and is the only way to be set free from our sin and it's just punishment.  We are either slaves of sin or we are His as sons and daughters.  We are truly free only in Christ - through the faith that come only from hearing His word. The truth sets us free indeed.
