12“•I assure you: The one who believes in Me lwill also do the works that I do. And he will do even greater works than these, mbecause I am going to the Father. n13Whatever you ask in My name, I will do it so that the Father may be glorified oin the Son. p14If you ask Me qanything in My name, rI will do it. st
