John 14:21-31

21 "¹He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and ²he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will ³disclose Myself to him."

22 ⁴Judas (not Iscariot ) said to Him, "Lord, what then has happened ⁵that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?"

23 Jesus answered and said to him, "⁶If anyone loves Me, he will ⁷keep My word; and ⁸My Father will love him, and We ⁹will come to him and make Our abode with him.

24 "He who does not love Me ¹⁰does not keep My words; and ¹¹the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father's who sent Me.

25 "These things I have spoken to you while abiding with you.

26 "But the ¹²Helper, the Holy Spirit, ¹³whom the Father will send in My name, ¹⁴He will teach you all things, and ¹⁵bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.

27 "¹⁶Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. ¹⁷Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.

28 "¹⁸You heard that I said to you, 'I go away, and ¹⁹I will come to you.' If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced because ²⁰I go to the Father, for ²¹the Father is greater than I.

29 "Now ²²I have told you before it happens, so that when it happens, you may believe.

30 "I will not speak much more with you, for ²³the ruler of the world is coming, and he has nothing * in Me;

31 but so that the world may know that I love the Father, I do exactly as ²⁴the Father commanded Me. Get up, ²⁵let us go from here.
