Why would Jesus say to his disciples that it’s to their advantage, and ours also, that he goes away in John 16:7-15? We’ll answer the question in this post. In the last post we discussed the role Jesus played while he lived on the earth. If you haven’t...

Today we are going to look at John 16:7-15. These verses are part of the last conversation Jesus had with his disciples before being arrested and going to the cross. I love this part of Scripture. Whenever I read it, I always think about how, if I were Jesus, I would...
