Evening: Psalms 91, 92; John 8: 33-47
Have you ever been invited to hear a talk, but you closed your ears, or did not even attend, because you thought you had “heard it all before”? When Jesus offered people ‘freedom’, they said, ‘we have never been slaves’, thereby missing his whole point. Jesus was referring to being free from what afflicts you - fear, anger, hatred or greed. They can make you their slave, so you follow their dictates not your own will. You make them your own or they own you. To want freedom, you have to know you are a slave, and to what.
