The Way, the Truth, and the Life

1 “Let anot your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.  
2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so,2 I would have told you. 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 where I go you know, and the way you know.”
5 aThomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”  
6 Jesus said to him, “I am athe way, bthe truth, and cthe life. dNo one comes to the Father eexcept through Me.  

The Father Revealed

7 a“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”  
8 Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? aHe who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?  
10 Do you not believe that aI am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you bI do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works.  
11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, aor else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.  

The Answered Prayer

12 a“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.  
13 aAnd whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be bglorified in the Son.
