14:5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
14:6 Jesus replied, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
14:7 If you know me, then you will know my Father also. From now on you do know him. You have seen him.”
14:8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, it will be enough for us.”
14:9 Jesus answered, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
14:10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? “The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own. The Father who dwells in me is doing his works.
14:11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. But if you do not, then believe because of the works themselves.
14:12 “Amen, amen, I say to you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do, and indeed will do even greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father.
14:13 Whatever you ask in my name I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14:14 If you ask me for anything in my name, I will do it.
14:15 “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
14:16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you forever,
14:17 the Spirit of Truth whom the world cannot accept because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, because he dwells with you and will be in you.
14:18 “I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.
14:19 In a little while, the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.
14:20 On that day, you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
14:21 “Anyone who has received my commandments and observes them is the one who loves me. And whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and reveal myself to him.”
14:22 Judas (not Judas Iscariot) asked him, “Lord, why is it that you are revealing yourself to us and not to the world?”
14:23 Jesus answered him, “Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our abode with him.
14:24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not my own, but that of the Father who sent me.
14:25 “I have told you these things while I am still with you.
14:26 However, the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of all that I have said to you.
14:27 “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled; be not afraid.
14:28 “You have heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
14:29 And now I have told you this before it happens, so that when it does happen you may believe.
14:30 “I will no longer talk at length with you because the prince of the world is coming. He has no power over me,
14:31 but the world must come to understand that I love the Father and that I do just as the Father has commanded me. Get up! Let us be on our way.
