Just Got Saved 101

John 8:31-32 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, "If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

People talk about how they want to stop living in sin. Sadly, they don't put forth any real effort aside form their own self will of trying not to do wrong. Jesus said himself, "if you abide in my word, you'll know the truth and the truth will set you free. 

The chapter goes on to talk about how anyone who sins is a slave to it. But if the Son (the Word (John 1:1)) sets you free, truly you are free indeed.


By abiding in His word, we renew our mind, by that regeneration we are set free from slaves of sin, to slaves of RIGHTEOUSNESS!
