John 16:25-27

Christian Standard Bible

Jesus the Victor

²⁵ “I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. A time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures, but I will tell you plainly about the Father. ²⁶ On that day you will ask^(A) in my name, and^(B) I am not telling you that I will ask the Father on your behalf. ²⁷ For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved^(C) me and have believed that I came from God.^[a](D)
