Book of Common Prayer
The Time of The Exodus
23 By faith Moses, having been born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw the child was beautiful and did not fear the edict of the king. 24 By faith Moses, having become great[a], refused to be called son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25 having chosen rather to be mistreated-with the people of God than to be having a temporary enjoyment of sin, 26 having regarded the reproach of [b] the Christ to be greater riches than the treasures of Egypt. For he was looking-away[c] to the reward. 27 By faith he left Egypt, not having feared the fury of the king. For he persevered[d] as seeing[e] the invisible One. 28 By faith he has performed the Passover[f] and the sprinkling of the blood in order that the one destroying the firstborns might not touch them. 29 By faith they crossed[g] the Red Sea as through dry land— of which having taken the test[h], the Egyptians were swallowed-up. 30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell, having been encircled for seven days. 31 By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish-with the ones having disobeyed, having welcomed the spies with peace.
6 Jesus says to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through[a] Me. 7 If you[b] have known Me, you will know[c] My Father also. And from now on, you know Him, and you have seen Him”.
He Who Has Seen Me Has Seen The Father
8 Philip says to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us”. 9 Jesus says to him, “Am I with you[d] all for so long a time, and you[e] have not known[f] Me, Philip?— the one having seen Me has seen the Father. How is it you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? I am not speaking the words which I am saying to you[g] from Myself, but the Father abiding in Me is doing His works. 11 Be believing Me— that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me. Otherwise, be believing because of the works themselves.
You Will Do Greater Works Than I. The Father Will Send You The Helper
12 “Truly, truly, I say to you— the one believing in Me, that one also will do the works which I am doing. And he will do greater[h] works than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And whatever thing you ask in My name, this I will do, in order that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.
