John 16:23-33 ▼

23 and in that day you will question nothing of Me; truly, truly, I say to you, as many things as you may ask of the Father in My Name, He will give you;

24 until now you asked nothing in My Name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

25 I have spoken these things in allegories to you, but there comes an hour when I will no longer speak to you in allegories, but will tell you freely of the Father.

26 In that day you will make request in My Name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father for you,

27 for the Father Himself cherishes you, because you have cherished Me, and you have believed that I came forth from God;

28 I came forth from the Father, and have come into the world; again I leave the world, and go on to the Father.”

29 His disciples say to Him, “Behold, now You speak freely, and You do not speak allegory;

30 now we have known that You have known all things, and have no need that anyone questions You; in this we believe that You came forth from God.”

31 Jesus answered them, “Now do you believe? Behold, there comes an hour,

32 and now it has come, that you may be scattered, each to his own things, and you may leave Me alone, and I am not alone, because the Father is with Me;

33 these things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace, in the world you will have tribulation, but take courage—I have overcome the world.”
