In his discourse to his disciples, Jesus repeatedly speaks about his imminent departure and return, promising to send the Holy Spirit as a Helper and emphasizing duties and responsibilities for his apostles. He warns against being too attached to the world and calls for obedience to his commandments. The purpose of his discourse is to prevent his disciples from stumbling and to leave them with peace and comfort despite the forthcoming hard times, with trust in God and Jesus necessary for lasting faith.
