John 14:1-9

1 Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe on God, believe also on me.

2 In my Father's house there are many abodes; were it not so, I had told you: for I go to prepare you a place;

3 and if I go and shall prepare you a place, I am coming again and shall receive you to myself, that where I am ye also may be.

4 And ye know where I go, and ye know the way.

5 Thomas says to him, Lord, we know not where thou goest, and how can we know the way?

6 Jesus says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father unless by me.

7 If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father, and henceforth ye know him and have seen him.

8 Philip says to him, Lord, shew us the Father and it suffices us.

9 Jesus says to him, Am I so long a time with you, and thou hast not known me, Philip? He that has seen me has seen the Father; and how sayest thou, Shew us the Father?
