“I
Am The Way And The Truth
And The Life”
“Do not let your hearts
be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many
rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to
prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come
back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the
way to the place where I am going.”
Thomas said to him,
“Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
Jesus answered, “I am the
way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If
you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know
him and have seen him.”
Philip said, “Lord, show
us the Father and that will be enough for us.”
Jesus answered: “Don’t
you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone
who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Don’t
you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I
say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living
in me, who is doing his work. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and
the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works
themselves. Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I
have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am
going to the Father.
John
14:1-12
We may wonder what God is like? Is He good? Does He care?
If you ever want to see
God, look at Jesus. “The Son is the image of the invisible God.”
The only God we can
believe in, is the one we see in Jesus
As you read about Him
your heart will leap, for though you may not know it, Jesus is the God you’ve
been looking for all your life.
The
clearer we see God, the clearer we see ourselves.
