Re: Verse reading–John 14:1-14 (day four) For several chapters, Jesus has been talking about relationships…relationships between man and man, between man and God, between Jesus and God. Relationships that are characterized by love, service, and unity. In chapter 14, He says that He is the only way to a relationship with God. To know Christ is to know God, to know God is to know Christ. The focus of His teaching has been these relationships. Move forward to chapter 17…Jesus is praying His high priestly prayer. What is He praying about? The disciples relationship to the Father…hold them in Your name, that they may be as You and I are…One. The understanding and living in these relationships was important to the Savior. It is important to you and me! Search these scriptures and evaluate your relationships…do they match up with the teaching of the Savior? The rewards are unprecedented…look at verses 13-14.
