The Holy Spirit Promised

   
John 16:5

John 16:8
  And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment;
 
John 16:9
  concerning sin, because they do not believe in Me;
 
John 16:10
  and concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and you no longer see Me;
 
John 16:11
  and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.
 
John 16:12

John 16:14
  He will glorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you.

Jesus' Death and Resurrection Foretold

   
John 16:16
  "A little while, and you will no longer see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me."
   
John 16:17
  Some of His disciples then said to one another, "What is this thing He is telling us, 'A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me'; and, 'because I go to the Father'?"
   
John 16:18
  So they were saying, "What is this that He says, 'A little while'? We do not know what He is talking about."
   
John 16:19
  Jesus knew that they wished to question Him, and He said to them, "Are you deliberating together about this, that I said, 'A little while, and you will not see Me, and again a little while, and you will see Me'?
   
John 16:20
  Truly, truly, I say to you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will grieve, but your grief will be turned into joy.
 
John 16:21
  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.
 
John 16:22
  Therefore you too have grief now; but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.
     
   

Prayer Promises

   
John 16:23
  In that day you will not question Me about anything. Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask the Father for anything in My name, He will give it to you.

  Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full.
 
John 16:25
  "These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; an hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figurative language, but will tell you plainly of the Father.
 
John 16:26
  In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I will request of the Father on your behalf;
 
John 16:27
  for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth from the Father.
 
John 16:28
  I came forth from the Father and have come into the world; I am leaving the world again and going to the Father."
   
John 16:29
  His disciples *said, "Lo, now You are speaking plainly and are not using a figure of speech.
   
John 16:30
  Now we know that You know all things, and have no need for anyone to question You; by this we believe that You came from God."
   
John 16:31
  Jesus answered them, "Do you now believe?
   
John 16:32
  Behold, an hour is coming, and has already come, for you to be scattered, each to his own home, and to leave Me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.
 
John 16:33
