John 14:2

Jesus' Farewell Discourse

¹ "Let not your hearts be troubled. Trust in God: trust in me also. ² In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make ready a place for you. ³ And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.

I Go Away

My Father

Prepare a Place
