Joh 16:12 - 15 "I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you." 

"You have not been given the ability to know everything, that is where faith in Me comes in to strengthen you;" Jesus told His followers. "You don't have all power and the ability to foresee every contingency as I have." "I Am Yahweh." "I Am Absolute Love." "I Am full of grace and truth." 
"So I will not leave you alone, The Spirit of God, full of truth and grace, will come guiding you, speaking through you, giving you authority and comfort." "The Spirit is One with the Father and I so that what He declares to you will be My presence within you." 

"You will only see Me for a little while longer;" Jesus said comfortingly. "Then you will again see Me in just a short time." 

The students following Jesus didn't understand this. They questioned one another saying; "What is He trying to tell us?" "We don't get this." 

Joh 16:16 - 19 "A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me. So some of his disciples said to one another, "What is this that he says to us, 'A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me'; and, 'because I am going to the Father'?"  So they were saying, "What does he mean by 'a little while'? We do not know what he is talking about. Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, so he said to them, "Is this what you are asking yourselves, what I meant by saying, 'A little while and you will not see me, and again a little while and you will see me'?"

Jesus wanted to clear things up. He wants us to know and believe in Him. Jesus was emphatic; "You are going to be mourning and then your mourning will be turned to gladness and rejoicing." "This is a metaphor for what is going to happen." "It will be like the pain of giving birth to a child, but the reality of the new child causes all the pain to be wiped away." "This is what it will be like you will be full of grief and then it will all be forgotten." "When you see Me again you will never lose that joy in your hearts, for My presence will eternally  
be in you." "You will ask the Father for My presence and to have the My insight and you will be given what you ask for." "Your will find joy in Me." 

Joh 16:20 - 24 "Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy. When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full." 

"Jesus continued teaching;"I have told you things in parables and metaphors, because you could not see the future clearly." "I wanted you to have a reference for remembering when these things happen, that they were meant to take place." "Then you would know and believe that I Am in control of all things." 
"It is coming soon that I will talk to you plainly and you will be able to receive and believe what you hear from Me." 
"Then you will ask things in My name and I will be your advocate to the Father." "My Father, God will be filled with Love for you because of Me." "This is because you love and believe in Me." 
"I came from God The Father, He and I are One." "When I leave you and Am no longer in your world, I and the Father will be together as One." 

Joh 16:25 - 28  "I have said these things to you in figures of speech. The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech but will tell you plainly about the Father.  In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf;  for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.  I came from the Father and have come into the world, and now I am leaving the world and going to the Father." 

The followers of Jesus said; "Thank you for telling this to us plainly in ways that we can understand." "Now we know and fully understand that you know all things." "You have demonstrated plain as day that you are Yahweh." "There is no question in our minds about You." "We believe You are from God and are sent here to do the works of God." 

Joh 16:29, 30  "His disciples said, "Ah, now you are speaking plainly and not using figurative speech!  Now we know that you know all things and do not need anyone to question you; this is why we believe that you came from God."
