wmth - John:14

wmth@John:14:1 @ »Let not your hearts be troubled. Trust in God: trust in me also.

wmth@John:14:2 @ In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make ready a place for you.

wmth@John:14:3 @ And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.

wmth@John:14:4 @ And where I am going, you all know the way.«

wmth@John:14:5 @ »Master,« said Thomas, »we do not know where you are going. In what sense do we know the way?«

wmth@John:14:6 @ »I am the Way,« replied Jesus, »and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

wmth@John:14:7 @ If you –all of you– knew me, you would fully know my Father also. From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him.«

wmth@John:14:8 @ »Master,« said Philip, »cause us to see the Father: that is all we need.«

wmth@John:14:9 @ »Have I been so long among you,« Jesus answered, »and yet you, Philip, do not know me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can ask me, `Cause us to see the Father'?

wmth@John:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me? The things that I tell you all I do not speak on my own authority: but the Father dwelling within me carries on His own work.

wmth@John:14:11 @ Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.

wmth@John:14:12 @ In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me–the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.

wmth@John:14:13 @ And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

wmth@John:14:14 @ If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.

wmth@John:14:15 @ »If you love me, you will obey my commandments.

wmth@John:14:16 @ And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate to be for ever with you–the Spirit of truth.

wmth@John:14:17 @ That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. You know Him, because He remains by your side and is in you.

wmth@John:14:18 @ I will not leave you bereaved: I am coming to you.

wmth@John:14:19 @ Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me: because I live, you also shall live.

wmth@John:14:20 @ At that time you will know that I am in my Father, and that you are in me, and that I am in you.

wmth@John:14:21 @ He who has my commandments and obeys them–he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will clearly reveal myself to him.«

wmth@John:14:22 @ Judas (not the Iscariot) asked, »Master, how is it that you will reveal yourself clearly to us and not to the world?«

wmth@John:14:23 @ »If any one loves me,« replied Jesus, »he will obey my teaching; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

wmth@John:14:24 @ He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching; and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine, but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.

wmth@John:14:25 @ »All this I have spoken to you while still with you.«

wmth@John:14:26 @ But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send at my request, will teach you everything, and will bring to your memories all that I have said to you.

wmth@John:14:27 @ Peace I leave with you: my own peace I give to you. It is not as the world gives its greetings that I give you peace. Let not your hearts be troubled or dismayed.

wmth@John:14:28 @ »You heard me say to you, `I am going away, and yet I am coming to you.' If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I am.

wmth@John:14:29 @ I have now told you before it comes to pass, that when it has come to pass you may believe.

wmth@John:14:30 @ In future I shall not talk much with you, for the Prince of this world is coming. And yet in me he has nothing;

wmth@John:14:31 @ but it is in order that the world may know that I love the Father, and that it is in obedience to the command which the Father gave me that I thus act. Rise, let us be going.«
