John 14:15-26 (New Living Translation)
View In My Bible
15
"If you love me, obey my commandments.
16
And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, a who will never leave you.
17
He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world at large cannot receive him, because it isn't looking for him and doesn't recognize him. But you do, because he lives with you now and later will be in you.
18
No, I will not abandon you as orphans -- I will come to you.
19
In just a little while the world will not see me again, but you will. For I will live again, and you will, too.
20
When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
21
Those who obey my commandments are the ones who love me. And because they love me, my Father will love them, and I will love them. And I will reveal myself to each one of them."
22
Judas (not Judas Iscariot, but the other disciple with that name) said to him, "Lord, why are you going to reveal yourself only to us and not to the world at large?"
23
Jesus replied, "All those who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and live with them.
24
Anyone who doesn't love me will not do what I say. And remember, my words are not my own. This message is from the Father who sent me.
25
I am telling you these things now while I am still with you.
26
But when the Father sends the Counselor as my representative -- and by the Counselor I mean the Holy Spirit -- he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I myself have told you.
