🌙 22 - Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it that you’ll reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered, “To those who love me, who will keep my word, my Father will love them, and we’ll come to them, and make our home with them. 24 And whoever doesn’t love me, doesn’t keep my words. And the word (message) you hear me say isn’t mine, but is from the Father who sent me.

      25 These things I’ve spoken to you while I’m still with you. 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit {Presence of God, to be with you} which the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I’ve said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you. My peace, I give to you. Not as the world gives, so let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. 28 You heard me say to you, ‘I’m going away, and I’ll come again.’ If you love me, you’ll rejoice, because I’m going to the Father, and the Father is greater than I am. 29 And now I’ve told you beforehand, so when it happens, you’ll believe. 30 I won’t talk much more, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no claim on me, 31 but I do as the Father has instructed me, so the world may know that I love the Father. Come, let us go from here.”

18 - “If the world hates you, know it has hated me before it hated you. {So we should try not to hate each other/be divided because of issues of “the world”?} 19 If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. But because you’re not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than their master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you. If they kept my word, they will keep yours. 21 But all these things they will do to you on account of my name, because they don’t know he who sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have been guilty, but now they have no excuse.

     23 Whoever hates me hates my Father also.

  24 If I had not done among them the works that no one else has done, they would not be guilty, but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 25 But the scripture written in The Law must be fulfilled, ‘They hated me without a cause.’

     26 “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit{/Presence of God} and Truth, which proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness about me. 27 And you disciples of mine will also bear witness [martureó - testify, give evidence, affirm what one has seen, heard, or experienced] because you have been with me from the beginning.”
