There is plenty of room for you in my Father's home. If that weren't so, would I have told you that I'm on my way to get a room ready for you? And if I'm on my way to get your room ready, I'll come back and get you so you can live where I live. And you already know the road I'm taking." 7/16/2015 7 Thomas said, "Master, we have no idea where you're going. How do you expect us to know the road?" Jesus said, "I am the Road, also the Truth, also the Life. No one gets to the Father apart from me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him. You've even seen him!

I will not leave you orphaned (John 14:15-18 MSG) 7/16/2015 16 Never lost again I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you… When he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. (John 16:7, 13 NIV) 7/16/2015 17 We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin… Thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were entrusted. You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness. (Romans 6:6, 17-18 NIV) 7/16/2015 18 Jesus is The Way Old self is crucified… No longer slaves to sin!
