God

They will do these things because they have understood neither the Father nor me.

But now I am going to the One who sent me. “Not one of you is asking me, ‘Where are you going?’

about righteousness, in that I am going to the Father and you will no longer see me;

Everything the Father has is mine; this is why I said that he receives from what is mine and will announce it to you.

“In a little while, you will see me no more; then, a little while later, you will see me.”

At this, some of the talmidim said to one another, “What is this that he’s telling us, ‘In a little while, you won’t see me; then, a little while later, you will see me’? and, ‘I am going to the Father’?”

“When that day comes, you won’t ask anything of me! Yes, indeed! I tell you that whatever you ask from the Father, he will give you in my name.

“I have said these things to you with the help of illustrations; however, a time is coming when I will no longer speak indirectly but will talk about the Father in plain language.

When that day comes, you will ask in my name. I am not telling you that I will pray to the Father on your behalf,

for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.

“I came from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and returning to the Father.”

Now we know that you know everything, and that you don’t need to have people put their questions into words. This makes us believe that you came from God.”

But a time is coming — indeed it has come already — when you will be scattered, each one looking out for himself; and you will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone; because the Father is with me.

After Yeshua had said these things, he looked up toward heaven and said, “Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, so that the Son may glorify you —

just as you gave him authority over all mankind, so that he might give eternal life to all those whom you have given him.

And eternal life is this: to know you, the one true God, and him whom you sent, Yeshua the Messiah.

“I glorified you on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do.

Now, Father, glorify me alongside yourself. Give me the same glory I had with you before the world existed.

“I made your name known to the people you gave me out of the world. They were yours, you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.

Now they know that everything you have given me is from you,

because the words you gave me I have given to them, and they have received them. They have really come to know that I came from you, and they have come to trust that you sent me.

“I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given to me, because they are yours.

Indeed, all I have is yours, and all you have is mine, and in them I have been glorified.

Now I am no longer in the world. They are in the world, but I am coming to you. Holy Father, guard them by the power of your name, which you have given to me, so that they may be one, just as we are.

When I was with them, I guarded them by the power of your name, which you have given to me; yes, I kept watch over them; and not one of them was destroyed (except the one meant for destruction, so that the Tanakh might be fulfilled).
