John 16:25-33 - Jesus' Victory Over The World

25 These things have I express'd in a figurative way: the time is coming when my language will be no longer enigmatical, but I shall give you a plain account relating to my father. 26 though then ye shall ask in my name: I need not promise, that I will pray the father for you; 27 for the father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I had my mission from God. 28 I was sent by the father, and am come into the world: but now I leave the world, and am going to my father.

29 His disciples said to him, what you say now is plain, and not enigmatical. 30 now we are convinc'd that you know all our difficulties, and have no occasion that any man should propose them to you: by this we believe that you were sent from God.

31 Jesus answered them, you now believe. 32 but, alas, the time is coming, yea, is already come, when ye shall be dispers'd every one to his own retreat, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the father is with me. 33 these things I have appriz'd you of, that ye might repose your confidence in me. the world shall give you trouble: but take courage, I have overcome the world.
