John 13:36-14:4 --- If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. --John 14:3 --- In John 13:36-14:4, we read that at the Last Supper Jesus spoke to His disciples and tried to prepare them for His death. When Simon Peter asked, "Where are you going?" Jesus replied, "Where I am going you cannot follow Me now, but you shall follow Me afterward" (13:36). Jesus was still speaking directly to Peter (and also meant it for all of His followers) when He said, "In My Father's house are many mansions [rooms]; if it were not so, I would have told you.
I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also" (14:2-3) Heaven is a family gathering of believers from every tribe and nation, but it is also our Father's house--and in that house He is preparing a room just for you.
When you arrive in heaven and Jesus opens the door, you'll know you're home.
I have a home in heaven above From sin and sorrow free-- A mansion which eternal love Designed and formed for me. --- -For the Christian, heaven is spelled H-O-M-E! ODB/DM
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
