John 14:16-31 ▼

16 |I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever;

17 [that is] the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, [but] you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.

18 |I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

19 |After a little while the world will no longer see Me, but you [will] see Me; because I live, you will live also.

20 |In that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.

21 |He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.|

22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, |Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?|

23 Jesus answered and said to him, |If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.

24 |He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father's who sent Me.

25 |These things I have spoken to you while abiding with you.

26 |But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.

27 |Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.

28 |You heard that I said to you, 'I go away, and I will come to you.' If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced because I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.

29 |Now I have told you before it happens, so that when it happens, you may believe.

30 |I will not speak much more with you, for the ruler of the world is coming, and he has nothing in Me;

31 but so that the world may know that I love the Father, I do exactly as the Father commanded Me. Get up, let us go from here.
