Truth, and our Capacity for
receiving it
'I have much more to say to you,
but you are unable at present to bear
the burden of it, But when He has
ceme-the Spirit of Truth-He will
guide you into all the truth. For He
will not speak as Himself originating
what He says, but all that He hears
He will speak, and He will make

born into the world. So you also now
have sorrow; but 1 shall see you
again, and your hearts will be glad,
and your gladness no one will take
away from you. You will put no
questions to me then.
Prayer in Christ's Name
'Tn most solemn truth I tell you
that whatever you ask the Father for
in my name He will give you. As yet
you have not asked for anything in

about the Father in plain words At
