John 14

John 14 contains a huge amount of important spiritual content. Here are a few highlights, taken from the NLT translation.

14:1-2,

Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?

Jesus tells us that the heavenly life is waiting for us. We don't deserve that gift. Instead, we must place our trust in him and accept that gift.

14:6,

I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.

Jesus tells us that he, and he along, is the path to eternal salvation.

14:9-11,

Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! ... The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me. Just believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me.

Jesus tells us that there is little, if any, separation between him and God. We should view them as one in the same.

14:20,

When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.

The message is that, as believers, we live in communion with God. God is spirit, and, as believers, we join in that spirit.

I encourage everyone to read the whole chapter. Reflect and pray upon its deep meanings.
