Thursday - The Sayings of Jesus

John 14:1-17

1) " Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me. 2) In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3) And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. 4) And you know the way where I am going." 5) Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?" 6) Jesus said to him, " I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me. 7) If you had known me, you would have known my Father also; henceforth you know him and have seen him." 8) Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied." 9) Jesus said to him, " Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, `Show us the Father'? 10) Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority; but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11) Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father in me; or else believe me for the sake of the works themselves. 12) " Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father. 13) Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son; 14) if you ask anything in my name, I will do it. 15) " If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 16) And I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, to be with you for ever, 17) even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him; you know him, for he dwells with you, and will be in you.
