John | Reading Plan + Study QuestionsSample

JOHN 14
JESUS FORETELLS HIS DEPARTURE + THE ARRIVAL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Jesus encourages His disciples not to be troubled and tells them that He is going before them and preparing a room in the Father’s house. At this time, when a son got married, the family would prepare a new room in the home for the son and his wife to start their own family. This phrase “prepare a room” points to their acceptance into God’s family.
Thomas asks Jesus how they will know the way to follow where He is going. Jesus teaches them that He is the way, the truth, and the life, and that no one will come to the Father except through Him. Serving as both fully God and fully man, Jesus is the only bridge between humanity’s sinfulness and God’s perfection.
Phillip asks Jesus to show them the Father, wanting to see more revelation from God. As the Son of God, Jesus tells Phillip that whoever has seen Him has also seen the Father.
Jesus teaches that whoever loves Him will do His works and follow His teaching. Encouraging prayer, He promises the disciples that God will provide anything they ask in the name of Jesus that is according to His will.
Jesus promises the arrival of the Holy Spirit as a helper for the disciples. God the Father will send the Holy Spirit to dwell within His people so that the Holy Spirit will teach them and remind them of the truth of Jesus. The arrival of the Holy Spirit will take place at Pentecost, recorded in Acts 2.
Jesus refers to Satan as the “ruler of this world,” showing the sinful state of humanity and the negative influence of sin on the world. Thankfully, Satan has no authority over Jesus, who encourages His disciples not to be troubled or afraid.
John 14:6 – Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
