John 14 — Context

8

Philip said to him, Lord, let us see the Father, and we have need of nothing more.

9

Jesus said to him, Philip, have I been with you all this time, and still you have no knowledge of me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. Why do you say, Let us see the Father?

10

Have you not faith that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you, I say not from myself: but the Father who is in me all the time does his works.

11

Have faith that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me: at least, have faith in me because of what I do.

12

Truly I say to you, He who puts his faith in me will do the very works which I do, and he will do greater things than these, because I am going to my Father.

13

And whatever request you make in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may have glory in the Son.

14

If you make any request to me in my name, I will do it.
