1. TRUE FREEDOM, DISCIPLESHIP AND STEADFASTNESS WITH THE SON
John 8:31,32; Acts 13:43; 14:22; I Timothy 2:15; 4:15,16
It is not enough to hear the word of God daily but that we remain in it. In remaining in it, it must be that:
>Your conscience remains tender and impressed by the word of God
>Your obedience is unquestionable
>Your life becomes purposeful
II Timothy 3:12-14
The continuation on staying in the word brings about advancement in knowledge and freedom (John 8:32,36). The freedom is from sin Romans 6:18, 22; 8:1,2

John 8:34 - Our title in the church doesn't tske us to heaven. Whosoever is living in sin is a servant of sin. Acts 8:23; II Peter 2:19

> Banishment for sinners - John 8:35; Lamentations 2:14; Psalm 28:3; 101:8; Matthew 7:19,23; 25:41
