These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
---These Things reflect of Chapter 15...which flows into 16...but they were...for when you are changed and your thinking stops and is reminded by the little voice in your head...for once you know it just don't leave you alone...and as you exceed you open their eyes as well...Hence provide all things honest and Let prove you to them and they will be proved to you...Integrity is tough but good...It has strength that causes growth...but the wicked want to choke this up even the blind of a form of righteousness...for they think they are doing God a Service...when IN FACT the WORD of GOD breaks every barrier and defies all logic and odds...in other words IF forces Humanity to PROGRESS with LIFE...NOT DEATH...for with it such things as diseases is already cured because He has the antidote...His words and stripes eat it up...Nothing can stop the LIFE OF HIM...I mean what ELSE could He DO...Cause He did it He said it ...like such as He keeps asking in v31...Do Ye NOW BELIEVE?
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
---Why do they do this...which is what caused Rome to fall because they did this to...why FOR they DIDN'T know the FATHER, nor Understood Who Jesus CHRIST was...
3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.
5 But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
---Why in the world didn't anybody ask Him where he was going? But none asked him...a God thought...indeed...He wondered why they didn't ask HIM...for if they believed with all their Heart I feel King David would have most certainly asked??? It is something He desires Conversation...hence all the Psalms David wrote among the lambs and sheep...and fought for the LION and BEAR in the silent midst...and He kept it a secret for his brothers still treated him like he was a runt among them...when they had not fought a lion and bear...it was a secret...read it...1 Samuel 16-18 his brothers didn't treat him like he was a lion or bear slayer...just a shepherd boy...He was sort of treated like Cinderella when Samuel went to anoint Him...just read it you will see the understanding of it...behold it is a mystery but can you find the clue of why it was so...it is throughout and from David's mouth...
6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is EXPEDIENT for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the COMFORTER WILL NOT COME unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And WHEN HE IS COME, HE WILL REPROVE THE WORLD OF SIN, AND OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, and OF JUDGMENT:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
---NOTICE: NOT JUST SIN, BUT RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUDGMENT HE REPROVED...HE REPROVED IT ALLL...He had to define them...and Especially on Righteousness for that was the greatest it seemed...for the sake of the souls of humans THIS had and was a MUST NEED for salvation...due to the degress and degrees of understandings that would reach out of line instead of bring back into subjection to the word and see where it fit in the word...weigh it by the word...if it done bend the commandments IT IS GOOD...hence HE SAID "HOWBEIT" v13...indeed...BUT IN HIS DAY...I CAN SEE THE LOOKS OF SHOCK ON THEIR FACES...AND THE SORROW ...SO he held it back when their hearts could perceive and digest it and it take root...for He is an AWESOME GOD...
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
---A little while, then When the DAY of Pentecost COMES ...such as HE said, 50 days later...a little while, and ye shall see me...
17 Then said some of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?
18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.
---Howbeit, when they received the HOLY GHOST...then they understood these things whole heartedly...
19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
In this sentence God proposed something like a puzzle in the grace of His intelligence of how He would make them wonder which made them ponder...
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
---Then He relates it to a woman giving life...the pain then the joy...but God's sorrow and pain is incredible to bear or even see...which was a Birthing of LIFE being GIVEN by GOD ...for the Holy GHOST...He talks about this ALL the time...His LOVE abounds so gracious in the lowest of the lows and to the highest of the highs...
21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
22 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy NO MAN TAKETH FORM YOU.
23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.
---WHAT else can HE do for His word CANNOT be BROKEN so if you Keep His commandments your wishes and dreams are in line with them and that is why when you are at that point whatsoever ye shall ask its done...for it is in line with His commandments...and your own desires and thoughts are NOT CONTRARY to HIS WORD...therefore it GLORIFIES the KINGDOM...It'll grow in Stone like a tree on the side of a mountain...It will crack the stone...for ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE to Him that believeth and Obey...then in v24 He is like Get busy...so your joy may be FULL...FULL and overflowing as David's cup runneth over in Psalm 23...
24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
25 These things have I spoken unto you in PROVERBS: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I SHALL SHEW YOU PLAINLY OF THE FATHER.
26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
---WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU PRAY?...you are seeking out things...think about it we pray and seek the Father for answers we are made in His image, Such as so He seeks out the possible answers which and how it will not break His word...but His seeking has all PERFECT judgment, righteousness, and sin is brought to surface...and acknowledged and shown and placed where it goes...so LIFE can live...Not corruption and deception...for the COMMANDMENTS, PRECEPTS, STATUTES, and Testimonies and Ordinances all PROLONG LIFE...and IT clearly tells you which and what will bring death and destructions...
27 For the Father himself LOVETH you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.
---AND then He proved what He said clearly and in their terms of understandings which He does to many...but ONLY THEN after ALLLL This time that HE KNOWS ALL THINGS...after all the things He had done and now THIS clears the air...unbelievable to such that struggled...they believed for they couldn't stop following him...but they are only sure NOW in v30...human nature...See Jesus was tested even as man in the place of which the purpose He had to fulfill...Hence He asked "DO YE BELIEVE NOW?" ...He asked so many everyday...
30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
31 Jesus answered them, DO YE NOW BELIEVE?
32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
HE SPAKE OF HOW ALL WERE SCATTERED AND EVERY MAN TO HIS OWN...WHEN HE WOULD BE CRUCIFIED...He knew He would walk it only with HIS Father...before ALL and the World would Never be the same...Something GOD did that was SO Out of this WORLD for our SOULS...
33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: BUT BE OF GOOD CHEER; I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD.
