John
14:15-31
15
'IF YOU LOVE ME,
YOU
WILL OBEY WHAT I COMMAND.
16
AND I WILL ASK THE FATHER,
AND
HE WILL GIVE YOU ANOTHER COUNSELOR
TO
BE WITH YOU FOREVER--
17
THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH.
THE
WORLD CANNOT ACCEPT HIM,
BECAUSE
IT NEITHER SEES HIM NOR KNOWS HIM.
BUT
YOU KNOW HIM,
FOR
HE LIVES WITH YOU
AND
WILL BE IN YOU (after Pentecost).
18
I WILL NOT LEAVE YOU AS OPHAS;
I
WILL COME TO YOU.
19
BEFORE LONG,
THE
WORLD WILL NOT SEE ME ANYMORE,
BUT
YOU WILL SEE ME.
BECAUSE
I LIVE YOU WILL ALSO LIVE.
ON
THAT DAY (the Day of Pentecost)
YOU
WILL REALIZE THAT I AM IN MY FATHER,
AND
YOU ARE IN ME,
AND
I AM IN YOU.
21
WHOEVER HAS MY COMMANDS
AND
OBEYS THEM,
HE
IS THE ONE WHO LOVES ME.
HE
WHO LOVE ME WILL BE LOVED BY MY FATHER,
AND
I TOO WILL LOVE HIM
AND
SHOW MYSELF TO HIM.
22
Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said,
'But
Lord,
Why
do you intend to show yourself to us
And
not to the World?'
23
Jesus replied,
'IF
ANYONE LOVES ME,
HE
WILL OBEY MY TEACHING.
MY
FATHER WILL LOVE HIM,
AND
WE WILL COME TO HIM
AND
MAKE OUR HOME WITH HIM.
24
HE WHO DOES NOT LOVE ME
WILL
NOT OBEY MY TEACHING.
THESE
WORDS YOU HEAR ARE NOT MY OWN,
THEY
BELONG TO THE FATHER WHO SENT ME.
25
ALL THIS I HAVE SPOKEN WHILE STILL WITH YOU.
BUT
THE COUNSELOR, THE HOLY SPIRIT,
WHOM
THE FATHER WILL SEND IN MY NAME,
WILL
TEACH YOU ALL THINGS
AND
WILL REMIND YOU
OF
EVERYTHING I HAVE SAID TO YOU.
27
PEACE I LEAVE WITH YOU;
MY
PEACE I GIVE TO YOU.
I
DO NOT GIVE TO YOU AS THE WORLD GIVES.
DO
NOT LET YOUR HEARTS BE TORUBLED
AND
DO NOT BE AFRAID.
28
YOU HEARD ME SAY,
'I
AM GOING AWAY AND I AM COMING BACK TO YOU.'
IF
YOU LOVED ME, YOU WOULD BE GLAD
THAT
I AM GOING TO THE FATHER,
FOR
THE FATHER IS GREATER THAN I.
29
I HAVE TOLD YHOU NOW BEFORE IT HAPPENS,
SO
THAT WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN
YOU
WILL BELIEVE.
30
I WILL NOT SPEAK WITH YOU MUCH LONGER,
FOR
THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD (Satan) IS COMING.
HE
HAS NO HOLD ON ME,
31
BUT THE WORLD MUST LEARN
THAT
I LOVE THE FATHER
AND
I DO EXACTLY
WHAT
MY FATHER HAS COMMANDED ME.
'COME
NOW; LET US LEAVE.
(John
14:15-31)
Those
who belong to Christ Jesus
Obey
what He Commands.
Those
who have experienced their Day of Pentecost
Have
the Holy Spirit living within them;
The
Spirit of Truth,
Who
leads them into All Truth.
Satan
has no hold on
Those
who Obey the Holy Spirit.
In
contrast, the Unbelieving World
Is
ruled by Satan. (1 John 5:19)
