I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life (JHN 14:1-14)

[14:1] “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.

[14:2] In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?

[14:3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

[14:4] And you know the way to where I am going.”

[14:5] Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?”

[14:6] Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

[14:7] If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”

[14:8] Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.”

[14:9] Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

[14:10] Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works.

[14:11] Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves.

[14:12] “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.

[14:13] Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

[14:14] If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
