John 14:5-21

⁵Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”

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

⁷If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him and have seen him.”

⁸Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”

⁹Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, ‘Show us the Father?’

¹⁰Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.

¹¹Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works’ sake.

¹²Most certainly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.

¹³Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

¹⁴If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.

¹⁵If you love me, keep my commandments.

¹⁶I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counsellor, that he may be with you forever:

¹⁷the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive, for it doesn’t see him and doesn’t know him. You know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.

¹⁸I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.

¹⁹Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.

²⁰In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

²¹One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”
