Jesus’ Farewell Discourse
14“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believea in God; believeb also in me. 2In my Father’s house there are many dwelling places; but if not, I would have told you, becausec I am going away to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself, so that where I am, you may be also. 4And you know the way where I am going.”
5Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How are we able to know the way?” 6Jesus said to him, “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 have knownd my Father also. From now one you know him and have seen him.”
8Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9Jesus said to him, “Am I with you so long a time and you have not known me, Philip? The one 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 that I say to you I do not speak from myself, but the Father residing in me does his works. 11Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if not, believe because of the works themselves. 12Truly, truly I say to you, the one who believes in me, the works that I am doing he will do also, and he will do greater works* than these because I am going to the Father.
