John 14:1-11 (Gospel)
- 1
- Let not 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, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
- 3
- And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.
- 4
- And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
- 5
- Thomas 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 the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
- 7
- 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? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so 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 speak to you I 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, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.
