• Saint John 16:23b-28 

    Jesus said to his disciples: “Amen, amen, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you. Until now you have not asked anything in my name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.

    I have told you this in figures of speech. The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures but I will tell you clearly about the Father. On that day you will ask in my name, and I do not tell you that I will ask the Father for you.

    For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have come to believe that I came from God. I came from the Father and have come into the world.

    Now I am leaving the world and going back to the Father.”
