truth, and the life, no man comes to the father, buy by me..
No, thats not Gods will. Christ never said obey, he never said love me! He said love the father, love one another and "Follow" me. Those were his only commandments.


Lets break down John 14, cool? I'll give my views, and then you give yours, ok? We'll do it verse by verse.

1. "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me."

he's speaking to his diciples, he's saying don't worry, you have a belief in God, now believe also in me. What he's telling them is to beleive what he says, and in his ways.

2. "In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."

He's saying there are many peoples in the father already, if it were not true, he would have told them. Now I go to prepare a place for "You". He's saying that he his preparing them to understand God more intimately, on a personal level. (Relationship)

Do you agree with this assesment thus far, JD?
