15 (A)If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.

The Holy Spirit

16 I will ask the Father, and He will give you another [a](B)Helper, so that He may be with you forever; 17 the Helper is (C)the Spirit of truth, (D)whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him; but you know Him because He remains with you and will be in you.

18 “I will not leave you as orphans; (E)I am coming to you. 19 [b](F)After a little while, (G)the world no longer is going to see Me, but you are going to see Me; (H)because I live, you also will live. 20 (I)On that day you will know that (J)I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I in you. 21 (K)The one who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and (L)the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will (M)reveal Myself to him.”

Overcoming the World

(A)Everyone who believes that Jesus is the [a]Christ has been (B)born of God, and everyone who loves the [b]Father (C)loves the child born of Him. (D)By this we know that (E)we love the children of God, when we love God and [c]follow His commandments. For (F)this is the love of God, that we (G)keep His commandments; and (H)His commandments are not burdensome. For [d]whoever has been (I)born of God (J)overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.

Who is the one who overcomes the world, but the one who (K)believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
