Jesus Comforts the Troubled

Prologue

                 He named him Noah and said, “He will comfort us in the labor and painful 
                 toil of our hands caused by the ground the Lord has cursed.” Genesis 5:29 NIV
               
                 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are 
                 with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. Psalm 23:4 NIV

Before He Leaves,
Jesus Promises the
Holy Spirit to His
Disciples 


John 14:1-4; 15-21 NIV

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God[a]; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.”

“If you love me, keep my commands. AND I WILL ASK THE FATHER, AND HE WILL GIVE YOU ANOTHER ADVOCATE TO HELP YOU AND BE WITH YOU FOREVER— the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him,because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[c] in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
