John 14:23–31
14:23 Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
14:24 He who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words. The word which you hear isn’t mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
14:25 “I have said these things to you while still living with you.
14:26 But the Counsellor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
14:27 Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.
14:28 You heard how I told you, ‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I said ‘I am going to my Father;’ for the Father is greater than I.
14:29 Now I have told you before it happens so that when it happens, you may believe.
14:30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
14:31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let’s go from here.
