John 14:5-14 - Jesus The Way To The Father

⁵ "We do not know where you are going, Master," said Thomas; "so how can we know the way?"

⁶ Jesus answered: "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life; no one ever comes to the Father except through me.

⁷ If you had recognized me, you would have known my Father also; for the future you will recognize him, indeed you have already seen him."

⁸ "Master, show us the Father," said Philip, "and we shall be satisfied."

⁹ "Have I been all this time among you," said Jesus, "and yet you, Philip, have not recognized me? He who has seen me has seen the Father, how can you say, then, 'Show us the Father'? ¹⁰ Do not you believe that I am in union with the Father, and the Father with me? In giving you my teaching I am not speaking on my own authority; but the Father himself, always in union with me, does his own work. ¹¹ Believe me," he said to them all, "when I say that I am in union with the Father and the Father with me, or else believe me on account of the work itself.

¹² In truth I tell you, he who believes in me will himself do the work that I am doing; and he will do greater work still, because I am going to the Father. ¹³ Whatever you ask, in my Name, I will do, that the Father may be honored in the Son. ¹⁴ If you ask anything, in my Name, I will do it.
