Jesus the Way to the Father

14 “Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, you may be also. You know where I am going, and you know the way.”

Jesus’ Farewell Discourse

14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe[a] in God; believe[b] also in me. In my Father’s house there are many dwelling places; but if not, I would have told you, because[c] I am going away to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself, so that where I am, you may be also. And you know the way where I am going.”
