28Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
29And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

31But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
