<transcy>The upper room (La chambre haute)</transcy>
The events and teachings recounted in John 13 - 16, that Bible passage also known as the "upper room speech", reveal to us some of the most powerful and moving promises of the Scripture made to believers.
As he spoke to his disciples in this room, rented or borrowed for feasts, the Lord was well aware that he was soon to experience an unimaginable lot of trials. In the same situation, anyone else would have been too agitated to care about the needs of others. However, this was not the case with Jesus. He wanted his disciples to know the peace of him who overcomes the world.
In The Upper Room , Pastor John MacArthur brings that evening to life and reminds us of the glorious hope we have in Christ.
