15:27. And you shall give testimony, because you are with me from the beginning.
John Chapter 16
The conclusion of Christ's last discourse to his disciples.
16:1. These things have I spoken to you things have I spoken to you that you may not be scandalized.
16:2. They will put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doth a service to God.
16:3. And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father nor me.
16:4. But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them.
16:5. But I told you not these things from the beginning, because I was with you. And now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me: Whither goest thou?
16:6. But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
16:7. But I tell you the truth: it is expedient to you that I go. For if I go not, the Paraclete will not come to you: but if I go, I will send him to you.
