CHAPTER STUDY WORKSPACE

John 16

Jesus warns the disciples that persecution will include expulsion and even killing by people who think they serve God. He explains that His departure is advantageous because the Comforter will come to reprove the world and guide the disciples into truth. Their approaching sorrow will turn to joy after they see Him again, and Jesus ends by promising peace in Himself despite tribulation in the world.
