  1. I Am the Way, the Truth and the Life John 14:1-14 Pastor Keone

  2. John 14:1-4 1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; {1 Or You trust in God} trust also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 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. 4 You know (oida) the way to the place where I am going."

  3. Jesus just finished telling them: • that one of the Twelve was a traitor (13:21), • John 13:21 21 When Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit, and testified and said, "Truly, truly, I say to you, that one of you will betray Me." • that He was going away and they could not come with Him (13:33), • John 13:33 33 "Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, 'Where I am going, you cannot come.' • that Peter would disown Him three times (13:38), • John 13:38 38 Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times.

  4. John 14:1-4 1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; {1 Or You trust in God} trust also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 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. 4 You know (oida) the way to the place where I am going.“ Jesus’ Promises: • My father’s house has many rooms • I’m going prepare a place for you • I’ll be back • You know the way there

  5. John 14:5-7 5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know (oida) where you are going, so how can we know (oida) 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 really knew (ginosko) me, you would know (oida) {7 Some early manuscripts If you really have known me, you will know} my Father as well. From now on, you do know (ginosko) him and have seen him." The Destination – the Father The Only Route – through Jesus

  6. John 14:8-11 8 Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us." 9 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'? 10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 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 miracles themselves. Jesus perfectly revealed the Father as evidenced by His character, words and miracles.

  7. John 1:18 18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.

  8. John 14:12-14 12 I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been 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 Son may bring glory to the Father. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. Anyone who has faith in Jesus: • Will do what He did • Will do even greater things than Him • May ask for and expect to receive anything that brings glory to the Father.

  9. Experiences that point to the validity of Jesus words: • Desiring to know more about God • Transformed attitudes and mindset • Purpose and direction in life • God moments as you step out in faith • Answered prayer
