Another Counselor Promised

15“If you love Me, you will keep uMy commands. v16And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another •Counselor wto be with you forever. 17He is the Spirit xof truth. yThe •world is unable to receive Him because it doesn’t see Him or know Him. But you do know Him, because He remains with you and will be zin you. a18I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming to you.

The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

19“In a little while the world will see Me no longer, bbut you will see Me. cBecause I live, you will live dtoo. 20In that day you will know that I am in My Father, eyou are in Me, and I am in you. 21The one who has My commands and keeps them is the one who loves Me. fAnd the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father. gI also will love him and will reveal Myself to him.”

22Judas h(not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it You’re going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?” i

23Jesus answered, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. j24The one who doesn’t love Me will not keep My words. The word that you hear is not Mine but is from the Father who sent Me. k
