Compare all
27 aPeace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.  
28 You have heard Me asay to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because1 I said, b‘I am going to the Father,’ for cMy Father is greater than I.  
29 “And anow I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.  
30 I will no longer talk much with you, afor the ruler of this world is coming, and he has bnothing in Me.  
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and aas the Father gave Me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

John 14:29

I have told you before it come to pass - Lest my death should be a stumbling-block to you, I have spoken of it beforehand, and showed you the necessity of it, that when it happens ye may believe, that as I could predict it so clearly, and so circumstantially, so all the good which I have promised shall be the result may be confidently expected by you; and that your sorrow, if not entirely removed, may at least be much mitigated.
