“You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him.” John 8:44a
“Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” John 8:44b
“But because I speak the truth, you do not believe Me! Which of you can prove Me guilty of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe Me? Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.” John 8:45-47
“The Jews answered Him, “Are we not right to say that You are a Samaritan and You have a demon?” John 8:48
“I do not have a demon,” Jesus replied, “but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me. I do not seek My own glory. There is One who seeks it, and He is the Judge. Truly, truly, I tell you, if anyone keeps My word, he will never see death.” John 8:49-51
“Now we know that You have a demon!” declared the Jews. “Abraham died, and so did the prophets, yet You say that anyone who keeps Your word will never taste death. Are You greater than our father Abraham? He died, as did the prophets. Who do You claim to be?”John 8:52-53
”Jesus answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory means nothing. The One who glorifies Me is My Father, of whom you say ‘He is ourg God.’ You do not know Him, but I know Him. If I said I did not know Him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know Him, and I keep His word.”Jn8:52-55
“Your father Abraham rejoiced that he would see My day. He saw it and was glad.” Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and You have seen Abraham?”Truly, truly, I tell you,” Jesus declared, “before Abraham was born, I am!” John 8:56-58
“At this, they picked up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus was hidden and went out of the temple area.”
Why this thread you might ask? Just as a reminder that those that hate the truth will always try to throw stones at it. The world hates the truth… Only God’s people love the truth and are set free in it. We are seeing the great divide… Keep loving the truth and you will be free
