* Jesus said , Do not let anything trouble your heart . You believe in God and you must believe in me also . * In my Fathers house are many rooms . If it were not so , I would have told you . I am going to make a place ready for you . * If I go to make a place ready for you , I will come again . I will come to take you so that you may be with me . * You know where I am going , and you know the way . * Thomas said to Jesus , Lord , we do not know where you are going . How can we know the way ? * Jesus said to him , I am the way . I am the truth . I give life . No one can come to my Father unless I take him there . * If you knew me , you would have known my Father also . But from now on you do know him because you have seen him . * Philip said to him , Lord , show us the Father , then we will be happy . * Jesus said to him , Philip , you mean to say that I have been with you all this time and yet you do not know me ? The person who has seen me has seen my Father also . Why do you say , "Show us your Father "? * Do you not believe that I am in my Father and my Father is in me ? The things that I say , I speak not from my own mind . But my Father lives in me and he does the work . * I tell you that I am in my Father and my Father is in me . But you do not believe me . So then let the work that I do prove it to you . * I tell you the truth . The person who believes in me will do the big work that I do . And he will do even bigger work because I go to my Father . * I will do anything you ask of my Father in my name . In that way the Son will make my Fathers name great . * If you ask anything in my name , I will do it . * If you love me , you will obey me . * I will ask my Father . He will give you another one to help you and to be with you always . * He will send you the Spirit of truth . The world cannot receive the true Spirit because it does not see or know him . You know him because he is with you and will be in you . * I will not leave you without someone to help you . And I myself will come back to you . * In a short time the world will not see me again , but you will see me again . Because I live , you will live also . * At that time you will know that I am in my Father . You are in me , and I am in you . * He who knows the things I tell him to do and does them , really loves me . My Father will love him and I also will love him . I will show him who I am . * Judas (not Iscariot ) said to Jesus , Lord , how are you going to make yourself real to us , and not to the rest of the world ? * Jesus said to him , If a person loves me , he will obey me . My Father also will love him . And we will come to him and will live with him . * The person who does not love me does not obey me . The word which you hear is not my word . It is my Fathers word . He is the one who sent me . * I have told you these things while I am still with you . * But the Holy Spirit is the one who will help you . My Father will send him in my name . He will teach you everything that I have said to you . His Helper will remind you of all that I said . * Peace is what I leave for you . I give you my own peace . People of the world also say , "Peace " to you . I do not say it as they say it . Do not let anything trouble your hearts . Do not fear . * You heard me say , "I am going away and then I will come back to you ." If you really loved me , then you would have been very glad that I am going to my Father . My Father is greater than I am . * I have told you this before it happens . Then when it does happen , you will believe . * After this I will not talk much with you . The ruler of this world is coming . He has no power over me . * I will do what my Father tells me to do so that the people of the world may know that I love my Father . Get up now ! We must go .
