14:2 In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you.
14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
14:4 You know the way to the place where I am going."
14:5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"
14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
14:7 If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."
14:8 Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."
14:9 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. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
14:10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
14:11 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.
