John 14 — Context

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.

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.

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.

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

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

If you have love for me, you will keep my laws.

And I will make prayer to the Father and he will give you another Helper to be with you for ever,
