John 14:2 - Prayer Tents

Jesus Comforts His Disciples

14DO NOT let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in {and} adhere to {and} trust in {and} rely on God; believe in {and} adhere to {and} trust in {and} rely also on Me.G5015G3361G5216G2588G5015G4100G1519G2316G4100G2532G1519G1691 2In My Father's house there are many dwelling places (homes). If it were not so, I would have told you; for I am going away to prepare a place for you.G1722G3450G3962G3614G1526G4183G3438G1490G302G2036G5213G4198G2090G5117G5213 3And when (if) I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to Myself, that where I am you may be also.G2532G1437G4198G2532G2090G5117G5213G2064G3825G2532G3880G5209G4314G1683G2443G3699G1473G1510G5210G5600G2532 4And [to the place] where I am going, you know the way.G2532G3699G1473G5217G1492G2532G3598G1492 5Thomas said to Him, Lord, we do not know where You are going, so how can we know the way?G2381G3004G846G2962G1492G3756G4226G5217G2532G4459G1410G1492G3598 6Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me.G2424G3004G846G1473G1510G3598G2532G225G2532G2222G3762G2064G4314G3962G1508G1223G1700

Jesus’ Oneness with the Father

7If you had known Me [had learned to recognize Me], you would also have known My Father. From now on, you know Him and have seen Him.G1487G1097G3165G302G1097G3450G3962G2532G2532G575G737G1097G846G2532G3708G846 8Philip said to Him, Lord, show us the Father [cause us to see the Father--that is all we ask]; then we shall be satisfied.G5376G3004G846G2962G1166G2254G3962G2532G714G2254 9Jesus replied, Have I been with all of you for so long a time, and do you not recognize {and} know Me yet, Philip? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say then, Show us the Father?G2424G3004G846G1510G5118G5550G3326G5216G2532G1097G3756G1097G3165G5376G3708G1691G3708G3962G2532G4459G3004G4771G1166G2254G3962 10Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in Me? What I am telling you I do not say on My own authority {and} of My own accord; but the Father Who lives continually in Me does the ({His}) works (His own miracles, deeds of power).G4100G3756G3754G1473G2076G1722G3962G2532G3962G1722G1698G4487G3739G1473G2980G5213G2980G3756G575G1683G1161G3962G3306G1722G1698G846G4160G2041 11Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me; or else believe Me for the sake of the [very] works themselves. [If you cannot trust Me, at least let these works that I do in My Father's name convince you.]G4100G3427G3754G1473G1722G3962G2532G3962G1722G1698G1490G4100G3427G1223G846G2041G846 12I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these, because I go to the Father.G281G281G3004G5213G4100G1519G1691G2041G3739G1473G4160G4160G2548G2532G3187G5130G4160G3754G1473G4198G4314G3450G3962 13And I will do [I Myself will grant] whatever you ask in My Name [as presenting all that I AM], so that the Father may be glorified {and} extolled in (through) the Son.G3739G2532G3748G302G154G1722G3450G3686G5124G4160G2443G3962G1392G1722G5207 14[Yes] I will grant [I Myself will do for you] whatever you shall ask in My Name [as presenting all that I AM].G1437G154G5100G1722G3450G3686G1473G4160 15If you [really] love Me, you will keep (obey) My commands.G1437G25G3165G5083G1699G1785

Role of the Spirit

16And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever--G2532G1473G2065G3962G2532G1325G5213G243G3875G2443G3306G3326G5216G1519G165 17The Spirit of Truth, Whom the world cannot receive (welcome, take to its heart), because it does not see Him or know {and} recognize Him. But you know {and} recognize Him, for He lives with you [constantly] and will be in you.G4151G225G3739G2889G3756G1410G2983G3754G2334G846G3756G3761G1097G846G1161G5210G1097G846G3754G3306G3844G5213G2532G2071G1722G5213 18I will not leave you as orphans [comfortless, desolate, bereaved, forlorn, helpless]; I will come [back] to you.G863G3756G863G5209G3737G2064G4314G5209 19Just a little while now, and the world will not see Me any more, but you will see Me; because I live, you will live also.G2089G3397G2532G2889G2334G3165G3765G1161G5210G2334G3165G3754G1473G2198G5210G2198G2532 20At that time [when that day comes] you will know [for yourselves] that I am in My Father, and you [are] in Me, and I [am] in you.G1722G1565G2250G5210G1097G3754G1473G1722G3450G3962G2532G5210G1722G1698G2504G1722G5213 21The person who has My commands and keeps them is the one who [really] loves Me; and whoever [really] loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I [too] will love him and will show (reveal, manifest) Myself to him. [I will let Myself be clearly seen by him and make Myself real to him.]G2192G3450G1785G2532G5083G846G1565G2076G25G3165G1161G25G3165G25G5259G3450G3962G2532G1473G25G846G2532G1718G1683G846 22Judas, not Iscariot, asked Him, Lord, how is it that You will reveal Yourself [make Yourself real] to us and not to the world?G2455G3004G846G3756G2469G2962G5101G1096G3754G3195G1718G4572G2254G2532G3780G2889 23Jesus answered, If a person [really] loves Me, he will keep My word [obey My teaching]; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home (abode, special dwelling place) with him.G2424G611G2532G2036G846G1437G5100G25G3165G5083G3450G3056G2532G3450G3962G25G846G2532G2064G4314G846G2532G4160G3438G3844G846 24Anyone who does not [really] love Me does not observe {and} obey My teaching. And the teaching which you hear {and} heed is not Mine, but [comes] from the Father Who sent Me.G25G3165G3361G5083G3756G3450G3056G2532G3056G3739G191G2076G3756G1699G235G3962G3588G3992G3165 25I have told you these things while I am still with you.G5023G2980G5213G3306G3844G5213 26But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I have told you.G1161G3875G40G4151G3739G3962G3992G1722G3450G3686G1565G1321G5209G3956G2532G5279G3956G5279G5209G5279G3739G2036G5213 27Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give {and} bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.]G1515G863G5213G1699G1515G1325G5213G3756G2531G2889G1325G1325G1473G5213G5015G3361G5216G2588G5015G3366G1168 28You heard Me tell you, I am going away and I am coming [back] to you. If you [really] loved Me, you would have been glad, because I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater {and} mightier than I am.G191G3754G1473G2036G5213G5217G2532G2064G4314G5209G1487G25G3165G302G5463G3754G2036G4198G4314G3962G3754G3450G3962G2076G3187G3450 29And now I have told you [this] before it occurs, so that when it does take place you may believe {and} have faith in {and} rely on Me.G2532G3568G2046G5213G4250G1096G2443G3752G1096G4100 30I will not talk with you much more, for the prince (evil genius, ruler) of the world is coming. And he has no claim on Me. [He has nothing in common with Me; there is nothing in Me that belongs to him, and he has no power over Me.]G3765G2980G3765G2980G4183G3326G5216G1063G758G5127G2889G2064G2532G2192G3756G3762G1722G1698 31But [Satan is coming and] I do as the Father has commanded Me, so that the world may know (be convinced) that I love the Father and that I do only what the Father has instructed Me to do. [I act in full agreement with His orders.] Rise, let us go away from here.G235G2443G2889G1097G3754G25G3962G2532G2531G3962G1781G3427G1781G3779G4160G1453G71G1782
