This chapter is Jesus talking to His disciples the night before He was killed.

I don't think He was mincing words that night. He was cutting to the chase.

Here's some verses that stand out for me...



John 14

1 "Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me.


  6 Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.
  9 Jesus replied, "Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! 


  12 "I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father.13 You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father.14 Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it!


15 "If you love me, obey my commandments.

16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you.

17 He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. 

18 No, I will not abandon you as orphans—I will come to you.


21 Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. And because they love me, my Father will love them. And I will love them and reveal myself to each of them."

  22 Judas (not Judas Iscariot, but the other disciple with that name) said to him, "Lord, why are you going to reveal yourself only to us and not to the world at large?"


  23 Jesus replied, "All who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them.



  27 "I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid.
