John 14:9-19

9 Jesus replied, "I have been with all of you for a long time. Don't you know me yet, Philip? The person who has seen me has seen the Father. So how can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? What I'm telling you doesn't come from me. The Father, who lives in me, does what he wants.
11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me. Otherwise, believe me because of the things I do.
12 "I can guarantee this truth: Those who believe in me will do the things that I am doing. They will do even greater things because I am going to the Father.
13 I will do anything you ask [the Father] in my name so that the Father will be given glory because of the Son.
14 If you ask me to do something, I will do it.
15 "If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
16 I will ask the Father, and he will give you another helper who will be with you forever.
17 That helper is the Spirit of Truth. The world cannot accept him, because it doesn't see or know him. You know him, because he lives with you and will be in you.
18 "I will not leave you all alone. I will come back to you.
19 In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. You will live because I live.
