In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
24
Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.

“Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father.

28
I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”
