How many times have you heard people say the truth will set you free? While it’s true that the truth may ease your mind, Jesus added a stipulation to genuine liberty. He said to the Jews who believed in Him: “If ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free” (John 8:31–32).
“If ye continue in My word”—It isn’t enough to know Jesus and God’s Word; lost people and Satan know Him and can quote Bible verses. Inviting Jesus into your life, surrendering to His Lordship, breaks the power of sin’s bondage and guilt over you—the greatest liberty. Genuine disciples receive God’s truth, embrace it, keep it, and live it out daily. Only then are Christ’s followers truly set free.
