Gospel
John 16:5-11
Unless I go, the Advocate will not come to you
Jesus said to his disciples:
‘Now I am going to the one who sent me.
Not one of you has asked, “Where are you going?”
Yet you are sad at heart because I have told you this.
Still, I must tell you the truth:
it is for your own good that I am going
because unless I go,
the Advocate will not come to you;
but if I do go,
I will send him to you.
And when he comes,
he will show the world how wrong it was,
about sin,
and about who was in the right,
and about judgement:
about sin: proved by their refusal to believe in me;
about who was in the right: proved by my going to the Father and your seeing me no more;
about judgement: proved by the prince of this world being already condemned.’
Reflection
When our love ones dies we are filled with sadness. The truth is life on us is temporary. When Christ is about to go back to the father his disciples were feel with sadness . However Christ said he must go for only than the advocate can come. He will show why we must not sin and live in righteousness.Do you know the advocate?
Let us pray
Lord Jesus may the advocate guide us to the path of righteous and avoid the path sin.
Amen
