John 16:26-33
16:26 At that time
you will ask in my name, and I do not say
that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
16:27 For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.
16:28 I came from the Father and entered into the world, but in turn,
I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”
16:29 His disciples said, “Look, now you are speaking plainly and not in obscure figures of speech!
16:30 Now we know that you know everything and do not need anyone to ask you anything. Because of this we believe that you have come from God.”
16:31 Jesus replied, “Do you now believe?
16:32 Look, a time is coming – and has come – when you will be scattered, each one to his own home, and I will be left alone. Yet I am not alone, because my Father is with me.
16:33 I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble and suffering, but take courage – I have conquered the world.”
