Daily Devo | The Truth Will Set You Free (John 8:30-36)
This famous saying of Jesus is quoted by many but often in ways that fail to understand the conditions that Jesus placed on this possibility of freedom. Most importantly, Jesus said that this truth and freedom would come to those who faithfully follow his teachings. Believing in Jesus, like the crowds in this passage, would not be enough. This same crowd would later attempt to stone Jesus. Instead, truth and freedom will come to those who persevere in following Jesus.

For Reflection:
Jesus said to the people who believed in him, "You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
- People sometimes feel that the Bible is filled with restrictions on our freedom, yet Jesus insists that following him will actually lead to greater freedom. How have you experienced this tension around freedom in your life?
- Is there anything you might consider saying "no" to, even for a time, in order to experience greater freedom -- perhaps for this Lenten season?
