How the Truth Can Set You Free, Part 10

Speaker 10:00

[upbeat music] Welcome to the In Touch Podcast with Charles Stanley for Friday, June 19th. You hear a lot of people talking about freedom these days, but no one is truly free if they remain under the power of sin. Here's the powerful finale of the series How the Truth Can Set You Free.

Charles Stanley· Host0:17

Please turn to John chapter 8, and Jesus talking to the hearers on this particular occasion, and if you'll notice, beginning in verse 28, He says in John chapter 8, "Jesus therefore said, 'When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and I do nothing of my own initiative, but I speak these things as the Father taught Me. And He who sent Me is with Me, and He has not left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.' As He spoke these things, many came to believe in Him. And Jesus therefore was saying to those Jews who had believed in Him, 'If you abide or continue in my word, then you are truly disciples of Mine. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.'" Now watch this. If you continue, abide in my word, then you're truly disciples of Mine. If you're abiding in my word, He says, you're going to know the truth, and the truth in which you have been continuing is going to set you free. Now let me take about two minutes to bring us up to date, and then I want to start off in a different perspective today.
