THE WAY TO THE FATHER

14 “Don’t let your heart be troubled.ah BelieveG in God;ai believe also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am goingaj to prepare a place for you? 3 If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come againak and take you to myself, so that where I am you may be also.al 4 You know the way to where I am going.”H,am

5 “Lord,” Thomasa said, “we don’t know where you’re going. How can we know the way?”

6 Jesus told him, “I amb the way,c the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you know me, you will also knowA my Father.d From now on you do know hime and have seen him.”

JESUS REVEALS THE FATHER

8 “Lord,” said Philip,f “show us the Father, and that’s enough for us.”

9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been among you all this time and you do not know me, Philip? The one who has seen me has seen the Father.g How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?h The words I speak to you I do not speak on my own.i The Father who lives in me does his works.j 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Otherwise, believeB because of the works themselves.k
