SCRIPTURE
John 14: 1-14
14:1 "Do not
let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. 2 In my
Father's house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have
told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place
for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, so that where I am,
there you may be also. 4 And you know the way to the place where I am
going." 5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are
going. How can we know the way?" 6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way,
and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If
you know me, you will know my Father also. From now on you do know him and have
seen him." 8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and we
will be satisfied." 9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you all
this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen
the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? 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; but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me
that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if you do not, then believe
me because of the works themselves. 12 Very truly, I tell you, the one who
believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater
works than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 I will do whatever you
ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If in my name
you ask me for anything, I will do it.
