I. He promises that he would continue his care of them (John 14:18): ?I will not leave you orphans, or fatherless; for, though I leave you, yet I leave you this comfort, I will come to you.?

Two things Christ here comforts his disciples with:? I. That they should be under the tuition of his Spirit, John 14:25, 26, where we may observe, 1.

14:18-24 "I will not leave you forlorn. I am coming to you. In a little while the world will no longer see me; but you will see me because I will be alive and you too will be alive. In that day you will know that I am in the Father, and that you are in me, even as I am in you. It is he who grasps my commandments and keeps them who loves me.

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 14:24

He that loveth me not, keepeth not my sayings ,.... These words may have respect both to external professors of religion, who being destitute of true love to Christ, though they outwardly observe his ordinances and commands; yet inasmuch as this does not spring from a principle of love to him, and is done only to be seen of men, or to obtain life for themselves, may be said, not to keep his words or commands, because they do not keep them aright; and to the profane world, who, as they have... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - John 14:24

Verse 24 24.He who loveth, me but keepeth not my words. As believers are mixed with unbelievers in the world, and as they must be agitated by various storms, as in a troubled sea, Christ again confirms them by this admonition, that they may not be drawn away by bad examples. As if he had said, “Do not look upon the world so as to depend on it; for there will always be some who despise me and my doctrine; but as for you, preserve constantly to the end the grace which you have once received.” Yet... read more

Verse 25 25.These things I have spoken to you. He adds this, that they may not despair, though they may have profited less than they ought to have done; for at that time he scattered a seed of doctrine, which lay hidden, and, as it were, suffocated in the disciples.
