John 14:1–12

Christ Comforts His Disciples

14“Let ^anot your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. ²In My Father’s house are many ¹mansions; if it were not so, ²I would have told you. ^bI go to prepare a place for you. ³And if I go and prepare a place for you, ^cI will come again and receive you to Myself; that ^dwhere I am, there you may be also. ⁴And where I go you know, and the way you know.”

Christ Answers Thomas

^5eThomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”

⁶Jesus said to him, “I am ^fthe way, ^gthe truth, and ^hthe life. ⁱNo one comes to the Father ^jexcept through Me.

^7k“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”

Christ Answers Philip

⁸Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”

⁹Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? ^lHe who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? ¹⁰Do you not believe that ^mI am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you ⁿI do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. ¹¹Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, ^oor else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.

^12p“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
