Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 8:32

"and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." — John 8:32 (ASV)

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Some who heard this message of our Lord seized upon it; they were always on the watch for anything to quibble about and contradict, and therefore –

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

That is the result of being a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.

With Christ, who is the truth, to be our Teacher, and the Holy Spirit to bless his words, we come to know the truth; and the operation of the truth upon the heart is to deliver us from the bondage of sin and of error.
