"Do not let your hearts be troubled. You put faith in God; put faith also in me.
There are many dwelling places that belong to my Father’s household. If it were not so, I should tell you so, because I go ahead of you to prepare your place.
And if I have gone and prepared a place for you, I come again and join up with you, so that where I AM, there you might also be.
And you already know the path I follow."
Thomas said to him, "Lord, we have no idea where you travel. How can we already know the path?"
Jesus said to him, "I AM the path, and I AM real, and I AM alive. No one comes to the Father without me.
If you comprehend me, you will comprehend my Father also. From now on you do comprehend him and have seen him."
Philip said to him, "Lord, explain the Father to us, and we will have all we need."
Jesus said to him, "So much time I AM with you, Philip, and you still do not comprehend me? Whoever sees me sees the Father. How do you say, ‘Explain the Father to us'?
Do you not trust that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The things that I say to you I do not speak from myself; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.
Trust me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if you do not, then trust because of the works themselves.
Very truly, I tell you, the one who puts faith in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father.
And if you ask for something that honours me, I will make it so, so that the Father may be honoured by way of the Son.
If you ask me for something that honours me, I myself will make it so.
