John 14:2-7
New International Version
2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there(A) to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back(B) and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.(C) 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Jesus the Way to the Father
5 Thomas(D) said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus answered, “I am(E) the way(F) and the truth(G) and the life.(H) No one comes to the Father except through me.(I) 7 If you really know me, you will know[a] my Father as well.(J) From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
