Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your
advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away,
the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will
send him to you.

he will declare to you the things that are to come.
John 7:38-39
“Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has
said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living

was not yet glorified.”

behold, I am with you always, to the end of the
age.”
