That’s only half of John 8:32. In context, Jesus says, “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” So to be set free, you first must know The Truth. Jesus came to set people free. But only those who know Him are set free.

Is your soul in starvation mode? Is your spiritual gut growling? The apostle John recorded Jesus’ words this way: “I am the bread of life,” Jesus told them. “No one who comes to me will ever be hungry, and no one who believes in me will ever be thirsty again” (John 6:35 CSB). Of course, Jesus is not talking about whole wheat bread and bottled water. He is talking about Himself. He is the satisfaction for a hungry soul that has tried everything.
I was a condemned criminal headed for execution and eternal death. Because of my sins, I was to be separated from everyone, forever. But God did something extraordinary. He sent His Son to die on a cross to pay the penalty I deserved. God said that if I will confess with my mouth Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Jesus from the dead, I would be saved, forgiven, and freed.
My mother was a great cook. After the nest was empty, she cooked a huge noon meal every Monday for us. She usually cooked a feast of two meats, four or five vegetables, rolls, and two or three deserts. Certain foods remind me of Laquita Joy Cooper Wright, like green chili chicken enchiladas, chicken fried steak, and coconut pie.
