约翰福音 16:25
These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.
Context
This verse from 约翰福音 Chapter 16 connects to 10 cross-references. 爱的篇章（哥林多前书13）：方言和先知讲道若没有爱都是空的；「爱是恒久忍耐，又有恩慈……不计算人的恶，不喜欢不义，只喜欢真理……凡事包容，凡事相信，凡事盼望，凡事忍耐。爱是永不止息。」方言和知识都会废去；「如今常存的有信，有望，有爱，这三样，其中最大的是爱。」
