The Lord’s Supper

Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that His hour had come that He would depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

the Helper is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him; but you know Him because He remains with you and will be in you.

After a little while, the world no longer is going to see Me, but you are going to see Me; because I live, you also will live.

Judas (not Iscariot) *said to Him, “Lord, what has happened that You are going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?”

Peace I leave you, My peace I give you; not as the world gives, do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, nor fearful.

I will not speak much more with you, for the ruler of the world is coming, and he has nothing in regard to Me,

but so that the world may know that I love the Father, I do exactly as the Father commanded Me. Get up, let’s go from here.

Disciples’ Relation to the World

“If the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before it hated you.

If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you.

And He, when He comes, will convict the world regarding sin, and righteousness, and judgment:

and regarding judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.

Truly, truly I say to you that you will weep and mourn, but the world will rejoice; you will grieve, but your grief will be turned into joy!

Whenever a woman is in labor she has pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish because of the joy that a child has been born into the world.

I came forth from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”

These things I have spoken to you so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.”

And now You, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world existed.

“I have revealed Your name to the men whom You gave Me out of the world; they were Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have followed Your word.

I ask on their behalf; I do not ask on behalf of the world, but on the behalf of those whom You have given Me, because they are Yours;

I am no longer going to be in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, so that they may be one just as We are.

The Disciples in the World

But now I am coming to You; and these things I speak in the world so that they may have My joy made full in themselves.

I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

I am not asking You to take them out of the world, but to keep them away from the evil one.

They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

Just as You sent Me into the world, I also sent them into the world.

that they may all be one; just as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.
