| 1 | "Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me. | Jesus the Way to the Father Jn.14.1-14 (Jerusalem) - | |
| 2 | In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? | ||
| 3 | And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. | ||
| 4 | And you know the way where I am going." | ||
| 5 | Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?" | ||
| 6 | Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me. | ||
| 7 | If you had known me, you would have known my Father also; henceforth you know him and have seen him." | ||
| 8 | Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied." | ||
| 9 | Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, 'Show us the Father'? | ||
| 10 | Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority; but the Father who dwells in me does his works. | ||
| 11 | Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father in me; or else believe me for the sake of the works themselves. | ||
| 12 | "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father. | ||
| 13 | Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son; | ||
| 14 | if you ask anything in my name, I will do it. | ||
| 15 | "If you love me, you will keep my commandments. | The Promise of the Spirit Jn.14.15-31 (Jerusalem) - | |
| 16 | And I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, to be with you for ever, | ||
| 17 | even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him; you know him, for he dwells with you, and will be in you. | ||
| 18 | "I will not leave you desolate; I will come to you. | ||
| 19 | Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more, but you will see me; because I live, you will live also. | ||
| 20 | In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. | ||
| 21 | He who has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me; and he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him." | ||
| 22 | Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?" | ||
| 23 | Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. | ||
| 24 | He who does not love me does not keep my words; and the word which you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me. | ||
| 25 | "These things I have spoken to you, while I am still with you. | ||
| 26 | But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. | ||
| 27 | Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. | ||
| 28 | You heard me say to you, 'I go away, and I will come to you.' If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I. | ||
| 29 | And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe. | ||
| 30 | I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me; | ||
| 31 | but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go hence. | ||
