The Way, the Truth, and the Life

“Lord,” said Thomas vvv“we do not know where You are going, [so] how can we know the way?”

6 

Jesus answered“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 7 If you had known Me, you would know My Father as well. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.”

8 

Philip said to Him,“Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”

9 

Jesus replied“Philip, I have been with you all this time, and vvv still you do not know Me? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How {can} you say,‘Show us the Father’? 10 vvv Do you not believe that I [am] in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I say to you, vvv I do not speak on My own. Instead, {it is} the Father dwelling in Me, performing His works. 11 Believe Me that I [am] in the Father and the Father [is] in Me — or at least believe on account of the works themselves.

12 

Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever believes in Me vvv will also do the works that I am doing. He will do even greater [things] than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask Me[fn] for anything in My name, I will do [it].
