In John 8 we encounter a group of Jews who were believing in Jesus...
Although they believe in Jesus, they do not appear to truly be his disciples. A corrective from Jesus is needed...
Jesus then goes on to say to these believers that they are slaves of sin (John 8:34), his word finds no place in them (John 8:37), that their father is the devil and not God (John 8:44), and that they do not believe in Jesus (John 8:45).
How is it possible to be both believing and unbelieving at the same time? How is it possible to be a believer in Jesus and yet a son of the devil, as John shows us?
Just to be clear: you are not calling Jews sons of the devil, right? Because that would be quite anti-Semitic.
