John 14:7-17 (New International Version)
View In My Bible
7
If you really knew me, you would knowa my Father as well.1 From now on, you do know him and have seen him."
8
Philip2 said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."
9
Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.3 How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
10
Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me?4 The words I say to you are not just my own.5 Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
11
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves.6
12
I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith7 in me will do what I have been doing.8 He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
13
And I will do whatever you ask9 in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.
14
You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15 "If you love me, you will obey what I command.10 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor11 to be with you forever-- 17 the Spirit of truth.12 The world cannot accept him,13 because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will beb in you.Scripture quoted by permission. Quotations designated (NIV) are from THE HOLY BIBLE: NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION®. NIV®.
