John 14:23-31

23Jesus answered him, “Those who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will go to them and make our home with them.

24A person who doesn’t love me doesn’t do what I say. I don’t make up what you hear me say. What I say comes from the Father who sent me.

25“I have told you this while I’m still with you.

26However, the helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything. He will remind you of everything that I have ever told you.

27“I’m leaving you peace. I’m giving you my peace. I don’t give you the kind of peace that the world gives. So don’t be troubled or cowardly.

28You heard me tell you, ‘I’m going away, but I’m coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I’m going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am.

29“I’m telling you this now before it happens. When it does happen, you will believe.

30The ruler of this world has no power over me. But he’s coming, so I won’t talk with you much longer.

31However, I want the world to know that I love the Father and that I am doing exactly what the Father has commanded me to do. Get up! We have to leave.”
