John 16:12

And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
