"TRUTH AND FREEDOM"

I've been listening to the Lord Jesus speaking to me about Truth... HIS TRUTH.
I cannot count the number of times I've heard John 8:32 quoted.

"... And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

Well, that's only half of the WHOLE truth. Because what Jesus actually said was this.

"IF you CONTINUE in MY WORD, THEN are you MY disciples indeed, AND... you shall know the Truth and the Truth shall make you free." That's the preceding verse 31

So ya see?

We've got folks running around quoting half a verse of Scripture, that does not even apply to them.

Knowing the Truth and being made free, is ONLY for disciples of Jesus Christ, learners, students... if you will.
Those who are continuing (abiding) IN HIS WORD!

And, if we are NOT continuing in HIS WORD, then we are NOT HIS disciples.

Saints, let's not be deceived by the adversary, ourselves or the world...

Selah...
