1 “I have said these things to you so that you will not fall away.
2 They will expel you from the synagogue, but an hour is coming that everyone who kills you will think they are offering service to God.
3 And they will do these things because they do not know the Father or me.
4 But I have said these things to you so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you about them. “And I have not said these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you.
5 But now I am going away to the one who sent me, and none of you is asking me, ‘Where are you going?’
6 But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts.
7 But I tell you the truth, it is better for you that I go away. For if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.
