Journey with us as we explore the breathtaking reality of the new creation, discover the magnificent

John 14:1-14
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 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? And if 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. And you know the way to
where I am going.” Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If
you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.” Philip
said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so
long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us
the Father’? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is 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. Believe me that I am in the
Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves. “Truly, truly, I say to you,
whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am
going to the Father. Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
