06:58Amen
07:09Unto thee lift I up my eyes
07:14O thou that dwellest in the heavens
07:21Behold
07:22Here as the eyes of servants
07:25look unto the hand of their masters
07:28And as the eyes of the maiden
07:32unto the hand of the mistress
07:35Even so are my strength
07:39Praise upon the Lord our God
07:42And cheer thee have mercy upon us
07:47Have mercy upon us, O Lord
07:52Have mercy upon us
07:57For we are utterly disguised
08:02Our soul is filled with the scorn
08:05For the reproof of the weapon
08:09And with the despised
08:11The mess of the proud
08:17Glory be to the Father
08:19And to the Son

08:50The Gospel according to Saint John
08:53Chapter 16
08:57I have told you all these things
08:59So that you will not fall away
09:03They will put you out of the synagogue
09:06Yet a time is coming
09:08When the one who kills you
09:09Will think he is offering service to God
09:13They will do these things
09:14Because they have not known the Father
09:16Or me
09:18But I have told you these things
09:20So that when their time comes
09:22You will remember
09:24That I told you about them
09:27I did not tell you these things
09:29From the beginning
09:29Because I was with you
09:31But now I am going
09:33To the one who sent me
09:34And not one of you
09:36Is asking me
09:37Where are you going
09:40Instead your hearts
09:41Are filled with sadness
09:42Because I have said these things
09:44To you
09:46But I tell you the truth
09:48It is to your advantage
09:49That I am going away
09:51For if I do not go away
09:53The Advocate will not come to you
09:56But if I go
09:57I will send him to you
10:00And when he comes
10:01He will prove the world wrong
10:03Concerning sin
10:05Righteousness and judgment
10:08Concerning sin
10:09Because they do not believe in me
10:11Concerning righteousness
10:12Because I am going to the Father
10:15And you will see me no longer
10:18And concerning judgment
10:19Because the ruler of this world
10:22Has been condemned
10:25I have many more things
10:27To say to you
10:28But you cannot bear them now
10:30But when he
10:31The Spirit of Truth
10:32Comes
10:33He will guide you
10:34Into all truth
10:36For he will not speak
10:38On his own authority
10:39But will speak
10:41Whatever he hears
10:42And will tell you
10:44What is to come
10:45He will glorify me
10:47Because he will receive
10:49From me
10:49What is mine
10:51And will tell it to you
10:54Everything that the Father
10:55Has is mine
10:56That is why I said
10:58The Spirit will receive
10:59From me
11:00What is mine
11:01And will tell it
11:02To you
11:05This is the word
11:06Of the Lord
11:08Thanks be to God
11:13The great aim
11:15Of the Lord Jesus
11:16In his final conversations
11:18With his apostles
11:19Was to convince them
11:21Of their perfect union
11:22With himself
11:24They were the branches
11:26Of the living vine
11:28They were his beloved
11:30And confidential friends
11:34Were these revelations
11:36Made merely to assure them
11:37Of privilege
11:38Merely to make them happy
11:40In the consciousness
11:41Of an honourable
11:42And inseparable relation
11:46Absolutely not
11:47This spiritual fellowship
11:50Was to be the power
11:51For holy service
11:52And the motive
11:53To patient endurance
11:55It is in this last respect
11:58That in the verses before us
12:00Our Lord relied
12:03Upon the revelation
12:04Already made
12:11He felt that
12:13Having explained
12:14The community
12:15Of life and interest
12:17Subsisting between
12:18Himself and his own
12:19He might open up
12:21Before them
12:22The prospect of
12:23Persecution
12:24For warned
12:26They would thus
12:27Be forearmed
12:29He treated them
12:31Herein not as children
12:32But as soldiers
12:33In a spiritual war
12:35Whose allegiance
12:36He did not doubt
12:38And of whose fortitude
12:40He was most perfectly assured
12:45It was no new thing
12:46In the world
12:47That men should be pursued
12:49With bitter hostility
12:50For their devotion
12:51To truth
12:52To duty
12:53To righteousness
12:55To God
12:57The history of Israel
12:59Contained
12:59But too many
13:01Illustrations
13:01Of the animosity
13:03With which the good
13:05Had been assailed
13:06By those to whom
13:08Their life and testimony
13:09Were a rebuke
13:11Jesus foresaw
13:12That confessors
13:13And martyrs
13:14Were to render a service
13:16In his kingdom
13:17Both by establishing
13:18The faith
13:19Upon a basis
13:20Of hard trial
13:21And proof
13:21And by extending
13:23The truth
13:24Amongst unbelievers
13:27Jesus here
13:28Refers to two ways
13:29In which his disciples
13:31Could experience
13:32The hostility
13:33Of an unbelieving world
13:37Doubtless the reference
13:39Here is to the Jews
13:41Even during
13:42Our Lord's ministry
13:42Those who confessed him
13:44Were in some instances
13:46Excluded from the synagogue
13:49And when the church
13:50Was constituted
13:51By the descent
13:52Of the spirit
13:53And especially
13:54When the broad designs
13:55Of Christianity
13:56As a religion
13:57Not for Israel only
13:59But for mankind
14:00In total
14:02Were clearly exhibited
14:04Then the hostility
14:06Of the bigoted
14:07Among the Jewish leaders
14:09And the Jewish populace
14:10With no
14:11No bounds
14:13Reverencing everything
14:15Connected with the
14:16Law and the prophets
14:17The preachers of Christ
14:19Would fain have resorted
14:20To the synagogues
14:21Of old
14:22Would fain have reasoned
14:24Out of scriptures
14:25With a view of proving
14:26That Jesus
14:27Was the Messiah
14:28And of showing
14:29How his religion
14:30Realised all the types
14:32And predictions
14:33Of Judaism
14:37But the merit
14:38And the glory
14:39Of Christianity
14:40Was in the eyes
14:41Of the legalist
14:42And the formalist
14:43Its chief offence
14:45And the sharp line
14:46Was drawn
14:47Over which
14:48The followers
14:49Of the Nazarene
14:50Were not allowed
14:51To step
14:54The Jews
14:55The Jews did
14:55As we know
14:56From the record
14:57Of the Acts
14:57Of the Apostles
14:58Even in the very
14:59Earliest years
15:00Of the history
15:01Of the Christian faith
15:02Carry out
15:03Their hostility
15:05So far
15:05As to inflict
15:06Capital punishment
15:07Upon a Christian
15:09Advocate
15:11As exampled
15:12By St Stephen
15:15But it seems
15:16As if our Lord
15:17In this prediction
15:18Is looking further
15:19Forward to events
15:20Which would follow
15:21The proclamation
15:22Of the gospel
15:23Amongst the Gentiles
15:26The annals
15:27Of the church
15:27Of Christ
15:28Are rich indeed
15:29With instances
15:31Of martyrdom
15:33And it has passed
15:34Into a proverb
15:35That the blood
15:37Of the martyrs
15:37Is the seed
15:38Of the church
15:42Our Lord
15:44Conceded
15:44That the motive
15:45To much
15:46Of the persecution
15:47That should assail
15:48The professors
15:49Of the faith
15:50Was a conscientious
15:52And even religious
15:53Motive
15:56Events have
15:57Confirmed this
15:58No doubt
15:59There have been
15:59Persecutors
16:00Who have acted
16:01From interested
16:02Or selfish
16:03Motives
16:05But there have
16:06Been those
16:07Who persecute
16:08Christians
16:08In the belief
16:10That they were
16:10Doing God
16:11A service
16:13And the years
16:14Of St Paul
16:15Before his conversion
16:16Are a particular
16:18Example of this
16:20Offering to him
16:22An acceptable sacrifice
16:23In the blood
16:24Of the faithful
16:25Unto death
16:29The Jews
16:30The Jews
16:30The Jews particularly
16:30Were in many instances
16:32Influenced in their
16:33Hostility to Christians
16:35By a reverence
16:36For what they believed
16:38However erroneously
16:40To be the perfect religion
16:42Capable of no addition
16:44And no improvement
16:46The professions
16:47The professions and claims
16:48Made first by Jesus
16:49And later by his servants
16:51On his behalf
16:52Were of a very high
16:54And authoritative
16:55Character
16:56Christ
16:57Christ was either
16:58The son of God
16:59Or he was an
17:01Out and out
17:01Blasphemer
17:03And we know
17:03That the latter view
17:04Was taken by many
17:05Of the Jewish
17:06Unbelievers
17:08It is no justification
17:10Of evil conduct
17:11That those guilty
17:12Of it are sincere
17:13Yet sincere ignorance
17:16Is an extenuation
17:18Even if it is not
17:19A vindication
17:20Of guilt
17:23Alas
17:23What evils
17:24Have been wrought
17:25In the name
17:26Not only of liberty
17:27But also of
17:29Religion
17:32Our Lord
17:33Was a revealer
17:34Of hearts
17:35He looked upon
17:36The profession
17:37Even below
17:39The belief
17:39He penetrated
17:42Deep
17:42Into the spiritual
17:43Desire of men
17:44And was familiar
17:46With the hidden
17:47Springs of thought
17:48And of action
17:50There was a reason
17:52Not necessarily
17:53Known
17:54In every case
17:55By the agents
17:56Themselves
17:57For the actions
17:58They would commit
18:00The Lord was able
18:01To account for
18:03Conduct
18:03By searching
18:04This inner nature
18:05And in
18:06So doing
18:07He discovered
18:08In the spiritual
18:09Ignorance
18:10Of the persecutor
18:11The true
18:12And all sufficient
18:13Reason
18:13For their attitude
18:15And proceedings
18:17They have not known
18:19They have not known
18:19The father
18:19Nor me
18:20He said
18:22They cannot know
18:23Christ
18:24By the knowledge
18:25That is of
18:26Spiritual appreciation
18:27And sympathy
18:28Who persecute
18:30And slay his friends
18:31And the promulgators
18:33Of his faith
18:34They not only
18:36Do not know
18:37But they totally
18:37Misunderstand
18:38Him
18:39His character
18:40And his mission
18:42If they suppose
18:43That God
18:44Can be pleased
18:45When Christians
18:45Are persecuted
18:48For it is not
18:49To be believed
18:49That the father
18:50Can look with
18:51Satisfaction
18:51Upon injuries
18:53Done to his own son
18:54In the person
18:56Of his followers
18:58Had the Jews
18:59Known Christ
19:00They would not
19:01Have slain
19:02The lord of glory
19:03None
19:04Who truly
19:05Knew our lord
19:06Could have possibly
19:07Persecuted his
19:08Faithful people
19:09In order to do
19:10His father
19:11Service
19:14There was a sympathy
19:15Between our lord
19:16And his apostles
19:17But that sympathy
19:18Was not perfect
19:21Even in the latest
19:22Of these quiet
19:23Conversations
19:24Between master
19:25And disciple
19:26It is evident
19:28That the perception
19:29Of the learners
19:30Was now and again
19:31Very dull
19:31And that their response
19:33To what he was saying
19:35Was somewhat inadequate
19:38There is a tone
19:39Of expostulation
19:41Almost of rebuke
19:43In this
19:45As in other portions
19:46Of his recorded discourse
19:50Concerning himself
19:51Jesus had uttered language
19:53With both perplexed
19:55And distressed
19:56His friends
19:57He had spoken
19:59Of his approaching
20:00Departure
20:01A prospect
20:03Which could not
20:04But grieve them
20:05And which clearly
20:06Depressed his hearers
20:07Their life
20:09Was bound up
20:11In his life
20:11And separation
20:13Could not be faced
20:14Without the sinking
20:15Of heart
20:18Concerning the apostles
20:19The Lord
20:20The Lord had opened
20:20A prospect
20:22Which dismayed
20:23Or at least
20:24Disconcerted them
20:25He had told them
20:26Very plainly now
20:27That they would be
20:28Both hated
20:29And persecuted
20:31But such an outlook
20:32As this
20:33Could only be gloomy
20:36They were not prepared
20:38At this stage
20:38For enduring
20:40Such tribulations
20:42Especially
20:42Were they to be
20:43Deprived of the
20:44Presence and support
20:45Visible
20:46And tangible
20:47Of their master
20:51Sorrow
20:52Said to Jesus
20:53Has filled
20:54Your heart
20:56He had opened
20:58The conversation
20:58By asking them
20:59To trust in him
21:00And to dismiss
21:02Fear and trouble
21:03From their mind
21:04He had given them
21:06Reasons for confidence
21:07Grounds for hope
21:08Motives for peace
21:11But they
21:12In turn
21:13Were conscious
21:14Of their
21:15Feeble nature
21:16Their dependence
21:18Upon him
21:20They had accordingly
21:22No thoughts
21:22But for themselves
21:23And as they looked
21:25At one another
21:25They must have felt
21:27That there was
21:28Among them
21:31No one
21:32Upon whom
21:32They could lean
21:33In the absence
21:35Of the Lord
21:38And he was going
21:40And he would be
21:41Going soon
21:42How could they
21:43Possibly keep together
21:44And if they
21:45Should keep together
21:46What was there
21:48Going to be
21:49For them to do
21:50Had not the master
21:51Done everything
21:53Without him
21:54Where would be
21:55The meaning
21:56Of their fellowship
21:57The purpose
21:57Of their life
21:58One thinks
22:00Of the problems
22:01At the foot
22:02Of Mount Tabor
22:03After the transfiguration
22:04When Jesus
22:05Returned
22:06To discover
22:08The disciples
22:09Unable
22:09To heal
22:12It is a proof
22:13Of the reality
22:14Of their attachment
22:15To Jesus
22:16Of the bitterness
22:18Of their disappointment
22:19At his departure
22:20That in this hour
22:22Their souls
22:23Should be so burdened
22:25And all but
22:26And all but
22:26Overwhelmed
22:27With grief
22:30For surely
22:31The apostles
22:32Were absorbed
22:33In their grief
22:34And trouble
22:34And hence
22:36They were
22:37Prevented
22:38By their own
22:39Depression
22:39From inquiring
22:41Further
22:41Into the nature
22:42Of our Lord's
22:43Departure
22:45Not that they
22:46Were altogether
22:47Incurious
22:47And careless
22:50Concerning this
22:52Some of them
22:53Had put questions
22:54Suggested by the
22:55Lord's words
22:56But they sank
22:57Back at once
22:57Upon their own
22:58Condition and
22:59Prospects
23:01If they had
23:02Turned away
23:02From their
23:03Own loss
23:03If they had
23:04Followed Christ's
23:05Declarations
23:06Concerning himself
23:07With interest
23:08And faith
23:09If they had
23:10Asked for
23:11Further revelations
23:12They would both
23:14Have forgotten
23:14Their personal
23:15Distress
23:16And they would
23:17Have received
23:18The inspiration
23:18And fortitude
23:19They needed
23:20As they
23:21Realised
23:22The victory
23:22Which would
23:23Follow the
23:23Saviour's
23:24Humiliation
23:26And as they
23:27Understood
23:27That in
23:28That victory
23:29They themselves
23:30Would have
23:31A share
23:34Experience
23:35Has shown
23:36Us
23:36That it is
23:37A most
23:38Deleterious
23:39Practice
23:40To direct
23:40Thought
23:41Too much
23:42Inwardly
23:43Upon our
23:43Own sorrows
23:44And perplexities
23:45Or even
23:46Upon our
23:47Joys and
23:47Comforts
23:50Religious
23:51Progress
23:51Can only be
23:52Made by
23:52Fixing the
23:53Gaze
23:53Of the
23:54Heart
23:54Upon him
23:56Who is
23:57Infinite
23:57Excellence
23:58And infinite
23:59Faithfulness
24:01Let our
24:02Principal
24:03Interest
24:04Therefore
24:04Our most
24:05Earnest
24:05Questioning
24:06Our most
24:07Ardent
24:07Affection
24:08Be constantly
24:09Directed
24:10Toward him
24:11And then
24:12Sorrow
24:13And depression
24:14Will vanish
24:16And peace
24:16Will reign
24:20The world
24:21Enjoyed many
24:22Benefits
24:23By reason
24:23Of christ's
24:24Presence
24:26Let's face
24:27It
24:27He healed
24:28The sick
24:29He taught
24:29The ignorant
24:30And was
24:31A kind
24:32Wise
24:32And faithful
24:34Friend
24:34To all
24:35Men
24:37How much
24:38More
24:38Then
24:39Were the
24:40Disciples
24:40Of jesus
24:41Indebted
24:42To that
24:42Presence
24:45His
24:45His
24:46Immediate
24:46Friends
24:46Owed
24:47Their
24:47All
24:47Their
24:48Very
24:48Selves
24:49To him
24:49And could
24:50Not look
24:50Forward to
24:51Losing him
24:52Without
24:52Total
24:54Dismay
24:55And yet
24:56Our
24:57Lord
24:57Taught
24:57That it
24:58Was
24:58Really
24:59For his
24:59People's
25:00Good
25:00That he
25:00Would
25:01Leave
25:01Them
25:01And the
25:02Experience
25:03Of the
25:03Christian
25:04Centuries
25:04Has proved
25:05The wisdom
25:06And truth
25:08Of his
25:08Teaching
25:14The
25:15Ascension
25:15Of christ
25:16Was the
25:17Occasion
25:19Of the
25:20Descent
25:20Of the
25:21Comforter
25:23The holy
25:24Spirit
25:25Was indeed
25:26No stranger
25:27To our
25:27Humanity
25:28Even before
25:29The lord's
25:29Coming
25:29But his
25:31Influence
25:32Would be
25:33Far more
25:33Widely
25:33Diffused
25:34And more
25:34Powerfully
25:35Active
25:36Than ever
25:36Previously
25:40Why the
25:41Coming
25:41Of the
25:41Spirit
25:41Was made
25:42In the
25:43Wise
25:43Councils
25:44Of god
25:44Dependent
25:45Upon the
25:45Departure
25:46Of jesus
25:47We cannot
25:48Completely
25:49Understand
25:51But the
25:51Events
25:52Of pentecost
25:53Are a
25:53Matter of
25:53Scriptural
25:54History
25:56The
25:56Records
25:56Of this
25:57Dispensation
25:59Remind us
26:00How the
26:00Spirit
26:01Has convinced
26:01The world
26:02Of sin
26:02Of righteousness
26:04And of
26:05Judgment
26:06The church
26:07Has never
26:07Since our
26:08Lord's
26:08Ascension
26:09Ceased
26:10To enjoy
26:10The enlightening
26:12The quickening
26:13And the
26:14Sanctifying
26:14Influences
26:15Of its
26:16Spiritual
26:17Comforter
26:21It was
26:22Necessary
26:23That the
26:23Son of
26:24God
26:24And the
26:24Saviour
26:25Of mankind
26:25Dwell
26:26Upon
26:27Earth
26:27And by
26:29The deeds
26:29Of his
26:29Ministry
26:30And by
26:30The death
26:31Of sacrifice
26:32Reveal
26:33God
26:33To his
26:34Sinful
26:34Children
26:35Furnishing
26:36In this
26:36Way
26:37A basis
26:38For the
26:39Spiritual
26:39Life
26:40Of humanity
26:42A revealed
26:43Object of
26:44Faith
26:44Was thus
26:45Provided
26:47But when
26:48The manifestation
26:49Was complete
26:49It was
26:50Withdrawn
26:52And the
26:53Special
26:53Excellence
26:54Of the
26:55Christian
26:55Faith
26:55Lies
26:56Here
26:56It is
26:57A faith
26:58Which calls
26:58For
26:59Indeed
26:59Justifies
27:00And encourages
27:01Faith
27:02Faith
27:03In an
27:03Unseen
27:04But mighty
27:05Ever
27:06Present
27:06Ever
27:07Gracious
27:08Redeemer
27:09And Lord
27:11In them
27:12In him
27:13Though now
27:14We see him
27:15Not
27:15Yet believing
27:16We rejoice
27:21So far as
27:22We can see
27:23The bodily
27:23Presence
27:24Of Jesus
27:24Upon earth
27:25Could not
27:26But limit
27:27His reign
27:29It could
27:30Not
27:30Well
27:31In such
27:32Case
27:32Be other
27:33Than
27:33Partial
27:33Local
27:34And national
27:36But the
27:37Purposes
27:37Of the
27:38Eternal
27:38Were
27:39Comprehensive
27:40In
27:41Benevolence
27:42It was
27:43Designed
27:44That all
27:44The ends
27:45Of the
27:45Earth
27:46Should see
27:47The salvation
27:47Of our
27:48God
27:49The going
27:50Away
27:50Of Jesus
27:51Assured
27:52To the
27:52New
27:53Humanity
27:53A divine
27:54And heavenly
27:55Head
27:56By his
27:57Spirit
27:58The ascended
27:59And glorified
28:00Lord
28:00Is equally
28:01Present
28:02In every
28:03Part
28:03Of his
28:04Dominions
28:05Thus
28:06All legal
28:07Limitations
28:08Are transient
28:09And provision
28:11Is made
28:12For the
28:12Extension
28:13To all
28:14Of mankind
28:15Through the
28:15Blessings
28:16Of our
28:16Saviour
28:17Spiritual
28:17Presence
28:18Authority
28:19And grace
28:23If Jesus
28:24Were still
28:25On earth
28:25Who would
28:26Not be
28:27Content
28:27To live
28:28And loathe
28:29To die
28:30What
28:31Prospect
28:31Would have
28:31Reconciled
28:32His
28:32Friends
28:33To death
28:36But our
28:37Divine
28:37Friend
28:37Has gone
28:38On before
28:38Us
28:39And we
28:40Can only
28:40Join him
28:41Upon the
28:41Condition
28:42Of the
28:42Taking
28:43Down
28:43Of this
28:43Perishable
28:44Tent
28:44In which
28:45We
28:45Dwell
28:45Today
28:47It is
28:48The prospect
28:49Of going
28:49To him
28:50Who has
28:50Gone away
28:51From the
28:51Earth
28:52Which lends
28:53Brightness
28:54To our
28:54Christian
28:55Future
28:56His
28:57Prayer
28:58Has
28:58Secured
28:58That
28:59Where he
29:00Is
29:00There
29:01Also
29:01His
29:01Friends
29:02And
29:02Disciples
29:03Are
29:03Waiting
29:04For us
29:06Accordingly
29:07An apostle
29:07Could speak
29:08Of removing
29:09Hence
29:09As being
29:10With
29:11Christ
29:11Which
29:12Is
29:12Far
29:12Better
29:13And
29:14There
29:14Is
29:14No
29:15Prospect
29:15So
29:16Dear
29:16To
29:17The
29:17Christian
29:17Heart
29:18As
29:19That
29:19Of
29:19Ever
29:19Being
29:20With
29:20The
29:21Lord
29:26Let us
29:27Pray
29:29Grant
