SCRIPTURE

"The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him. Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him that sent me." — John 7:32-33 (ASV)

And the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him. Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.

That was a blessed way for Christ to describe his return to the heavenly world: I go unto him that sent me. Possibly he said this to the very men who were sent to take him.
