Do not go astray

John 16
1"All this I have told you so that you will not go astray. 2They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God. 3They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me. 4I have told you this, so that when the time comes you will remember that I warned you. I did not tell you this at first because I was with you.
The Work of the Holy Spirit 5"Now I am going to him who sent me, yet none of you asks me, 'Where are you going?' 6Because I have said these things, you are filled with grief. 7But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. 8When he comes, he will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment: 9in regard to sin, because men do not believe in me; 10in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; 11and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.
12"I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you. 15All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will take from what is mine and make it known to you.
16"In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me."

[Comments from Nobody]
I look at this passage and almost start to get upset because of the part where they will put you out of the Church. But when I read further down I see what is most important.
"In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me."
Seeing and being with Jesus and the Father is the most important thing in my life. I think back on why it didn't upset me to loose my place in a Church or the Ministries God gave me there. And I realise that the most important thing is seeing Him face to face, and finishing the race. Although I miss the lost relationships at my last Church I know God has a plan for me and I need to stay on track with His plan not the plan of my old Pastor. Warning do not fall prey to following someone elses plan for you. You must follow God's plan for you. If there is stress or a heavy laid burden on you then chances are you are holding onto someone else's plan for you and not what God has planed for you. Becareful to listen to His Holy Spirit and what He has for you, remember what he said: "I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
