In My Father’s House Are Many Rooms

1Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me. 2In my Father's house there are many mansions; if not, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you. 3And as I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to myself, that where I am, ye may also be. 4And ye know where I am going, and ye know the way.

The Way, the Truth, and the Life

5Thomas saith unto Him, Lord, we know not whither thou art going, and how can we know the way? 6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me.

7If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye do know Him, and may be said to have seen Him.

8Philip saith unto Him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 9Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long with you, and dost thou not know me? Philip, he that hath seen me, hath seen the Father: and how then dost thou say, Shew us the Father? 10Dost thou not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? as to the words which I speak to you, I speak them not of my self; and the Father who abideth in me, doth the works. 11Believe me therefore that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: at lest, believe me for the very works. 12Verily, verily I say unto you, he that believeth on me, the works that I perform he also shall perform, and greater than these shall he do: because I am going to the Father. 13And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, I will do it: that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If ye ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
(John 16:5–16)

15If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father,

16and He will give you another comforter to abide with you for ever: 17even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him: but ye know Him, because He abideth with you, and shall be in you.

18I will not leave you orphans: I will come to you. 19Yet a little while, and the world shall see me no more; but ye shall see me: and because I live, ye shall live also. 20Then ye shall know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. 21He that hath my commandments and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest my self to him. 22Judas (not the Iscariot) saith unto Him, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thy self to us, and not to the world? 23Jesus answered and said unto him, If any one love me, he will observe my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and will make our abode with him. 24He that doth not love me, doth not observe my words: and yet the word that ye hear, is not mine, but the Father's who hath sent me.

25These things have I spoken unto you, while I have been with you. 26But the comforter, that is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said unto you.

Peace I Leave with You

27Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you; not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28Ye have heard, how I said unto you, "I am going away, and I shall come again to you." If ye loved me, ye would rejoice that I said, I am going to the Father: for my Father is greater than I. 29And now I have told you before it come to pass, that when it cometh to pass ye may believe. 30I shall not have much more conversation with you: for the prince of this world is coming; not that he hath any thing in me, 31but that the world may know that I love the Father, and that I do as the Father hath commanded me. Arise, let us go hence.
