John 14:12-31

12Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and 1greater works than these he will do; because 2I go to the Father. 133Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that 4the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If you ask Me anything 5in My name, I will do it.

15“6If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. 16I will ask the Father, and He will give you another 78Helper, that He may be with you forever; 17that is 9the Spirit of truth, 10whom 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; 11I will come to you. 191213After a little while 14the world will no longer see Me, but you will see Me; 15because I live, you will live also. 2016In that day you will know that 17I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. 2118He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and 19he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will 20disclose Myself to him.” 2221Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, what then has happened 22that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?” 23Jesus answered and said to him, “23If anyone loves Me, he will 24keep My word; and 25My Father will love him, and We 26will come to him and make Our abode with him. 24He who does not love Me 27does not keep My words; and 28the 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. 26But the 29Helper, the Holy Spirit, 30whom the Father will send in My name, 31He will teach you all things, and 32bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. 2733Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. 34Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. 2835You heard that I said to you, ‘I go away, and 36I will come to you.’ If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced because 37I go to the Father, for 38the Father is greater than I. 29Now 39I have told you before it happens, so that when it happens, you may believe. 30I will not speak much more with you, for 40the ruler of the world is coming, and he has nothing in Me; 31but so that the world may know that I love the Father, 41I do exactly as 42the Father commanded Me. Get up, 43let us go from here.
