New Testament

John 14:10-22 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

10. Don't you believe that I am one with the Father and that the Father is one with me? What I say isn't said on my own. The Father who lives in me does these things.

11. Have faith in me when I say that the Father is one with me and that I am one with the Father. Or else have faith in me simply because of the things I do.

12. I tell you for certain that if you have faith in me, you will do the same things that I am doing. You will do even greater things, now that I am going back to the Father.

13. Ask me, and I will do whatever you ask. This way the Son will bring honour to the Father.

14. I will do whatever you ask me to do.

15. Jesus said to his disciples:If you love me, you will do as I command.

16. Then I will ask the Father to send you the Holy Spirit who will help you and always be with you.

17. The Spirit will show you what is true. The people of this world cannot accept the Spirit, because they don't see or know him. But you know the Spirit, who is with you and will keep on living in you.

18. I won't leave you like orphans. I will come back to you.

19. In a little while the people of this world won't be able to see me, but you will see me. And because I live, you will live.

20. Then you will know that I am one with the Father. You will know that you are one with me, and I am one with you.

21. If you love me, you will do what I have said, and my Father will love you. I will also love you and show you what I am like.

22. The other Judas, not Judas Iscariot, then spoke up and asked, “Lord, what do you mean by saying that you will show us what you are like, but you will not show the people of this world?”
