John 14:1–12

I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life

¹“^aDo not let your heart be troubled; ¹believe in God, believe also in Me.

²“In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for ^aI go to prepare a place for you.

³“And if I go and prepare a place for you, ^aI will come again and receive you to Myself, that ^bwhere I am, there you may be also.

⁴“And you know the way where I am going.”

^5aThomas ^*said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going. How do we know the way?”

⁶Jesus ^*said to him, “I am ^athe way, and ^bthe truth, and ^cthe life. No one comes to the Father but through Me.

Oneness with the Father

⁷“^aIf you have come to know Me, you will know My Father also; from now on you ^bknow Him, and have ^cseen Him.”

^8aPhilip ^*said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.”

⁹Jesus ^*said to him, “Have I been with you all so long and have you not come to know Me, Philip? ^aHe who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

¹⁰“Do you not believe that ^aI am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? ^bThe words that I say to you I do not speak from Myself, but the Father abiding in Me does His works.

¹¹“Believe Me that ^aI am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise ^bbelieve because of the works themselves.

¹²“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and ^agreater works than these he will do because ^bI go to the Father.
