016:024 As yet you have not asked for anything in my name: ask, and you shall receive, that your hearts may be filled with gladness.
016:025 "All this I have spoken to you in veiled language. The time is coming when I shall no longer speak to you in veiled language, but will tell you about the Father in plain words.
016:026 At that time you will make your requests in my name;
and I do not promise to ask the Father on your behalf,
016:027 for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me
dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.
016:028 I came from the Father and have come into the world.
Again I am leaving the world and am going to the Father."
016:029 "Ah, now you are using plain language," said His disciples,
"and are uttering no figure of speech!
016:030 Now we know that you have all knowledge, and do not need to be pressed with questions. Through this we believe that you came from God."
016:031 "Do you at last believe?" replied Jesus.
016:032 "Remember that the time is coming, nay, has already come, for you all to be dispersed each to his own home and to leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
016:033 "I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But keep up your courage: *I* have won the victory over the world."
