that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? Otherwise believe for the very works' sake.
"Amen, amen I say to
you, he that believeth in Me, the works that I do, he also shall do. And
greater than these shall he do, because I go to the Father, and whatsoever you
shall ask the Father
in My Name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you
shall ask Me
anything in My Name, that I will do.
"If you love Me, keep
My commandments. And I will ask the Father, and He shall give you another
Paraclete,5 that He may abide with you forever:6 the Spirit of Truth, Whom the
world cannot
receive, because it seeth Him not, nor knoweth Him. But you shall know Him,
because He shall abide
with you, and shall be in you.
"I will not leave you
orphans; I will come to you. Yet a little while, and the world seeth Me no
more. But you see Me, because I live, and you shall live. In that day you shall
know that I am in
My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.
"He that hath My
commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me. And he that loveth Me
shall be loved of My Father. And I will love him, and will manifest Myself to
him."
Judas (not the
Iscariot) saith to Him: "Lord, how is it that Thou wilt manifest Thyself to us,
and
not to the world?" Jesus answered, and said to him: "If anyone love Me, he will
keep My word, and
My Father will love him, and We will come to him, and will make Our abode with
him.
"He that loveth Me not,
keepeth not. My words. And the word which you have heard, is not mine,
but the Father's, Who sent Me. These things have I spoken to you, abiding with
you. But the
Paraclete, the Holy Ghost, Whom the Father will send in My Name, He will teach
you all things and
bring all things to your mind, whatsoever I shall have said to you.
5 Paraclete: That is, a comforter: or also an advocate; inasmuch as by
inspiring prayer, He
prays, as it were, in us, and pleads for us.
6 Forever: Hence it is evident that this Spirit of Truth was not only promised
to the persons of
the Apostles, but also to their successors through all generations.
7 Teach you all things: Here the Holy Ghost is promised to the Apostles and
their successors,
particularly, in order to teach them all truth, and to preserve them from error.
