John 14:1-14
1"Don`t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
2In my Father`s house are many mansions. If it weren`t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.
3If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.
4Where I go, you know, and you know the way."
5Thomas says to him, "Lord, we don`t know where you are going. How can we know the way?"
6Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, but by me.
7If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and have seen him."
8Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us."
9Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, `Show us the Father?`
10Don`t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father living in me does his works.
11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works` sake.
12Most assuredly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these will he do; because I am going to my Father.
13Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14If you will ask anything in my name, that will I do.
