We read further in Jn 8:31-THEN SAID JESUS TO THOSE JEWS WHICH BELIEVED ON HIM (Note: Jesus is talking to true Christians), IF YE CONTINUE IN MY WORD, THEN ARE YE MY DISCIPLES INDEED.
Every true Christian is a disciple (disciple means pupil). If you are not a pupil of Jesus, you are not born-again. You are not saved.
Jesus says here, IF YE CONTINUE IN MY WORD, then you are My sheep, My pupils, My brethren, My disciples.
His Word continues, verse 32-AND YE SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH, AND THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE.
If you have not continued in God’s Word, then how can you stand on God’s Word to say you are saved? If you do not desire the sincere milk of the Word, how can you say you are born-again? Let God be true and every man a liar-ref Ro 3:4.
This is further substantiated in Jn 12:48-HE THAT REJECTETH ME, AND RECEIVETH NOT MY WORDS (note what it says), HE THAT…RECEIVETH NOT MY WORDS, HATH ONE THAT JUDGETH HIM: THE WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM IN THE LAST DAY. If you reject God’s Word (the Bible), you are rejecting Jesus. You are not saved.
