1“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe in Me as well.
2In My Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?
3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and welcome you into My presence, so that you also may be where I am.
4You know the way to the place where I am going.”
5“Lord,” said Thomas, “we do not know where You are going, so how can we know the way?”
6Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
7If you had known Me, you would know My Father as well. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.”
8Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
9Jesus replied, “Philip, I have been with you all this time, and still you do not know Me? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
10Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I say to you, I do not speak on My own. Instead, it is the Father dwelling in Me, performing His works.
11Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me — or at least believe on account of the works themselves.
12Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever believes in Me will also do the works that I am doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
13And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14If you ask Me for anything in My name, I will do it.
15If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.
16And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate to be with you forever —
17the Spirit of truth. The world cannot receive Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you do know Him, for He abides with you and will be in you.
18I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.
19In a little while the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you also will live.
20On that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you.
21Whoever has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me. The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him.”
— John 14:1-21
