24 Until now you have asked for nothing in My name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
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 In that day you will ask in My name. I am not telling you that I will make requests to the Father on your behalf.
27 For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from God.
28 I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”
29 “Ah! ” His disciples said. “Now You’re speaking plainly and not using any figurative language.
30 Now we know that You know everything and don’t need anyone to question You. By this we believe that You came from God.”
