John 14:3-10
New International Version
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back(A) and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.(B) 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Jesus the Way to the Father
5 Thomas(C) said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus answered, “I am(D) the way(E) and the truth(F) and the life.(G) No one comes to the Father except through me.(H) 7 If you really know me, you will know[a] my Father as well.(I) From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
8 Philip(J) said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”
9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.(K) How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me?(L) The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority.(M) Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
