John 14:6–13

⁶Jesus answered him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one goes to the Father except by me. ⁷Now that you have known me,” he said to them, “you will know^e my Father also, and from now on you do know him and you have seen him.”

⁸Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father; that is all we need.”

⁹Jesus answered, “For a long time I have been with you all; yet you do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. Why, then, do you say, ‘Show us the Father’? ¹⁰Do you not believe, Philip, that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I have spoken to you,” Jesus said to his disciples, “do not come from me. The Father, who remains in me, does his own work. ¹¹Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. If not, believe because of the things I do. ¹²I am telling you the truth: those who believe in me will do what I do—yes, they will do even greater things, because I am going to the Father. ¹³And I will do whatever you ask for in my name, so that the Father’s glory will be shown through the Son.
