In My Father’s House Are Many Rooms

1"Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in Me. 2In My Father's house are many abiding-places; otherwise, I would have told you; because I am going to prepare a place for you. 3And, if I go and prepare a place for you, I am coming again, and will receive you to Myself; that, where I am, ye may be also. 4And, whither I am going, ye know the way."

The Way, the Truth, and the Life

5Thomas says to Him, "Lord, we know not whither Thou art going; how do we know the way?" 6Jesus saith to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me.

7If ye knew Me, ye would know My Father also; from henceforth ye know Him, and have seen Him."

8Philip says to Him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it suffices us." 9Jesus saith to him, "So long a time am I with you, and you do not know Me, Philip! He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how say you, 'Show us the Father?' 10Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I say to you, I speak not from Myself; but the Father, abiding in Me, doeth His works. 11Believe Me, that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me; or, else, believe Me because of the works themselves. 12Verily, verily, I say to you, he that believes on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do, because I go to the Father. 13And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, this will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If ye shall ask anything in My name, I will do it.

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

15"If ye love Me, ye will keep My commandments;

16and I will ask of the Father, and He will give you another Advocate, that He may be with you forever; 17the Spirit of truth, Whom the world cannot receive, because it beholds Him not, neither knows Him: ye know Him, because He abideth with you, and will be in you.

18I will not leave you orphans; I am coming to you. 19Yet a little while, and the world beholds Me no more; but ye behold Me; because I live, ye shall live also. 20In that day ye will know that I am in My Father, and ye in Me, and I in you. 21He who has My commandments, and keeps them, he it is that loves Me; and he that loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him, and will manifest Myself to him." 22Judas, not Iscariot, says to Him, "Lord, what has happened, that Thou art about to manifest Thyself to us, and not to the world?" 23Jesus answered, and said to him, "If any one loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him, and make Our abode with him. 24He who loves Me not, keeps not My words; and the word which ye hear is not Mine, but the Father's Who sent Me.

25"These things have I spoken to you, while abiding with you. 26But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and remind you of all things that I told you.

Peace I Leave with You

27"Peace I leave for you; My own peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled; neither let it be fearful. 28Ye heard that I said to you, 'I go away, and I come to you.' If ye loved Me, ye would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; because the Father is greater than I. 29And now I have told you before it comes to pass; that, when it comes to pass, ye may believe. 30I will no more speak much with you; for the Prince of the world is coming, and he has nothing in Me; 31but, that the world may know that I love the Father, and, as the Father commanded Me, so I do, Arise, let us go hence."
