| 0:46.7 | voicemail we received from one of our callers over the weekend. Hello, my name is Simone, |
| 0:52.7 | and my question is is John 1633. |
| 0:59.2 | I understand everything except the end of that verse. |
| 1:05.1 | I have overcome the world. |
| 1:09.2 | We may have great tribulation, but I have overcome the world. I don't understand |
| 1:14.3 | what Jesus is referring to there with all the tribulations that we continually have. So I appreciate |
| 1:22.4 | your understanding about this first. Thank you. Bye-bye. |

| 1:45.4 | you know, 14 and 15, you can tell that there's some concern there because their Lord, |
| 1:49.5 | their master is going away. And they don't know where he's going. And so he's providing comfort |
| 1:55.1 | for them in this discourse, in particular, promising them the gift of the Holy Spirit, saying, |
| 2:00.4 | I'm leaving with the Spirit of God is coming. I'm going to send the Spirit. I'm not going to leave you as orphans. And then you get to verse 32. Then he says, behold, the hour is coming. Indeed, it has come when you will be scattered, each to his own home and will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. I have said these things to you that in me you may have peace. |
