Preparation for Sunday mass: John 16:12-15


We present here the text that will be read at Sunday mass, the Feast of the Most Holy Trinity, and we formulate some questions that might help us prepare to hear the reading.

12 Jesus said to his disciples: "I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak on his own, but will speak whatever he hears, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will glorify me, because he will take what is mine and declare it to you. 15 All that the Father has is mine. For this reason I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.”

For adults:

- What does Jesus mean when he says that he has many things to say to us but that we cannot bear them now?

- How does the Spirit help us to understand and bear these things?

- What is the action of the Spirit?

For children:

- Can we identify Father, Son and Holy Spirit in the text? Where are they?

- How do Father, Son and Holy Spirit act as one?

- What is the role of the Spirit?
