John 14:1-9 ▼

1 |Don't let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me.

2 There are many rooms in my Father's house. If there weren't, I wouldn't have told you that I am going away to prepare a place for you, would I?

3 And since I'm going away to prepare a place for you, I'll come back again and welcome you into my presence, so that you may be where I am.

4 You know where I am going, and you know the way.|

5 Thomas asked him, |Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?|

6 Jesus told him, |I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

7 If you have known me, you will also know my Father. From now on you know him and have seen him.|

8 Philip told him, |Lord, show us the Father, and that will satisfy us.|

9 |Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me?| Jesus asked him. |The person who has seen me has seen the Father. So how can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
