Part I

List the verses where Jesus mentions that He’s going ‘AND’ coming.

List the verses where Jesus only says He’s going/leaving.

List the verses where Jesus only say He’s coming back.

List the verses where Jesus promises to send someone when He leaves. Who is He sending and what are the different names Jesus used for Him?

Part II

Answer the following questions in your own words.

Do you think that the disciples might have been nervous or upset when Jesus told them the things in verses 19-33?

In verse 32, what event was Jesus foretelling the disciples about?

How would you have felt if you had spent as much time with Jesus as the disciples did and then all of a sudden He was taken from you?

***Note: The fear and confusion the disciples felt after Jesus was arrested and led away is very much how a person who falls away from God and leaves Jesus feels until they repent and return to Him.
