the Father abiding in me doeth his works. Believe me
that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for
the very works' sake. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth
on me, the works that I do shall he do also: and greater works than
these shall he do; because I go unto the Father. And whatsoever ye shall
ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the
Son. If ye shall ask anything in my name, that will I do. If ye love
me, ye will keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he
shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever, even
the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him
not, neither knoweth him: ye know him, for he abideth with you, and
shall be in you. I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you.
"Yet a little while, and the world beholdeth me no more; but ye behold me:
because I live, ye shall live also. In that day ye shall know that I am in
my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. He that hath my commandments, and
keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved
of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself unto him."
Judas (not Iscariot) saith unto him, "Lord, what is come to pass that
thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?"
Jesus answered and said unto him, "If a man love me, he will keep my
word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make
our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my words: and the
word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.
"These things have I spoken unto you, while yet abiding with you. But
the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my
name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all
that I said unto you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give unto you:
not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be
troubled, neither let it be fearful. Ye heard how I said to you, I go
away, and I come unto you. If ye loved me, ye would have rejoiced,
because I go unto the Father: for the Father is greater than I.
"And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come
to pass, ye may believe. I will no more speak much with you, for the
prince of the world cometh: and he hath nothing in me; but that the
world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave me
commandment, even so I do."
