Be Free by the Truth

(John 8:31-38)

Overseer Sung-Hyun Kim

God
is one and only.
He
made many spirits and these are ministering spirits (Rev 22:8-9).
There is only One who is self-existing and permanent (Jn 17:3).
In the same way,
holiness is believing God is one and only.
Heaven is full of the glory of the One and Only (Phil 2: 6-7).
Jesus Christ came from the Father’s bosom
and the angels were created in heaven.
They are God’s ministering spirits (1 Sam 16:14).
As the creation is not the truth, it will someday disappear (Mt 24:35).
The self-existing One alone is eternal and He is the truth (Jn 14:6).
God’s Word was with Him since eternity past. He is the truth.
Those who abide in His word are His disciples indeed (Jn 8:31).
Likewise, knowing the truth is freedom and salvation (Jn 8:32).
Those who are free throw off all defects and are justified.
If He who is surely free sets you free, you are free (Jn 8:36).
Baptism is the sign of those who are free (Acts 19:2-7).
The Holy Spirit seals and guarantees this freedom (2 Cor 1:21-22).
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth (Jn 16:13).
〇 Because creatures can become corrupt, they are unrighteous.
Since God is righteous, they follow His will.
Jesus came to the world by the righteous Father’s will.
〇 If we follow Jesus’ will and belong to Him, He will justify us.
As we are free and the authority of Hades cannot overcome us,
we all become God’s children.
〇 Those who are free are children of the righteous One.
God paid their wages by His blood,
so they are forever justified.
※ Do not be deceived. Do not be deceived by human wisdom
and do not rely anymore on the Law and conscience.
You must be free only by the truth.
