16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you KNOW Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. 18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.
John 14:16-18
