Jhn 14:1  Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in me.
Jhn 14:2  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.
Jhn 14:3  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there you may be also.
Jhn 14:4  And where I go you know, and the way you know.
Jhn 14:5  Thomas said unto him, Lord, we know not where you go; and how can we know the way?
Jhn 14:6  Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me.
Jhn 14:7  If you had known me, you should have known my Father also: and from henceforth you know him, and have seen him.
Jhn 14:8  Philip said  unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it suffices us.
Jhn 14:9  Jesus said unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet have you not known me, Philip? he that has seen me has seen the Father; and how do you then say, Shew us the Father?
Jhn 14:10  Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwells in me, he does the works.
Jhn 14:11  Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
Jhn 14:12  Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Jhn 14:13  And whatsoever you shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Jhn 14:14  If you shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
Jhn 14:15  If you love me, keep my commandments.
Jhn 14:16  And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
Jhn 14:17  Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it sees him not, neither knows him: but you know him; for he dwells with you, and shall be in you.
Jhn 14:18  I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
Jhn 14:19  Yet a little while, and the world sees me no more; but you see me: because I live, you shall live also.
Jhn 14:20  At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
Jhn 14:21  He that has my commandments, and keeps them, he it is that loves me: and he that loves me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Jhn 14:22  Judas said unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself unto us, and not unto the world?
Jhn 14:23  Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Jhn 14:24  He that loves me not keeps not my sayings: and the word which you hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
Jhn 14:25  These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
Jhn 14:26  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Jhn 14:27  Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Jesus says at the end of John 14 …. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.  The peace of Jesus is that he and the Father are one.   His dwelling place is the Fathers love.  His home is the Father, and the Father’s home is him.  They reside in one another.  

The word peace means to join with …… The Hebrew word for peace is Shalom.  It talks about the state of being whole, complete, or full.  It talks about soundness in body; safety; welfare; health; prosperity; tranquility; contentment.  When said to another its states a desire for another to be made whole, so they can dwell in a state of harmony, and wellness, and safety, and tranquility, and prosperity of soul and mind.  

Theres a joy that permeated Jesus’ being. He dwelled in a state of harmony and tranquility.  All because of His union with the Father, and the Holy Spirit.  Theres a wholeness; a soundness of mind and body found in the Godhead, that is the result of the incorruptible life and fellowship that is their union with one another.  The conclusion of their union together; the conclusion of their being is always life, and life more abundantly.  

Jesus says in John 14:2-3 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.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

When Jesus says he goes to prepare a place for us, he’s talking about giving us his peace.  Jesus says in the Fathers house there are many mansions.  When Jesus says there are many mansions in his Fathers house he’s not talking about mansions like we think of mansions.  Jesus isnt saying you will have a big house in heaven.  He isnt going to heaven to build you a big house.  Jesus is talking about a place of residence, it’s just not a house made with man’s hands.  The residence Jesus is talking about is God Himself.  The mansion is the family in heaven, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit …. The word mansion simply means abode; or dwelling place.  A residence, it’s a place to stay.   

John chapter 1 says no one has seen the Father, except for the only begotten Son.  He is in the bosom of the Father.  John isnt saying no one has heard from God, or interacted with God, or seen a manifestation of God.  Moses talked with God out of the midst of the burning bush.  Abraham prepared a meal and ate with God.  

1Ti 6:16  speaking of Jesus says Who only has immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.  

When John says no one has seen the Father, but the only begotten Son.  He’s talking about them being of the same nature; the same essence.  John’s saying no one possesses the immortality of the Father but the only begotten Son.  No one is by nature of the self same substance of the Father.  No one is by nature immortal, but the only begotten Son.  No one has approached the light, even as He is in the light, but the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father.  He dwells in the light with the Father.  

John 3 says the Father so loved the world He sent his only begotten Son. Jesus is come from the bosom of the Father.  The Son was begotten, not created, out of the Father’s love for the world.  He is in the Father and the Father is in him.  They are one; they share in the same glory.  Jesus says the Father is my dwelling place.  I reside in His love.(John 15).  I come from his bosom.  It’s the place I stay.  I’m in Him, and He’s in me.  He’s my dwelling place/home, and I’m His dwelling place home.  I make my abode in Him, and He makes His abode in me.  We are one.  We dwell together in the light of immortality.  

Jesus says he’s going to be with the Father, so just as the Father is His dwelling place, we can also make our abode with him in the Father.  Jesus wants us to be with Him in the bosom of the Father.  He wants our dwelling place to be with Him in the Father’s love, so we can overcome the world.  He wants to abide in us, and for us to abide in him.  He wants to make his home in us, that just as He and the Father are one in the light, we can be one with them, in the light.  The Father in him, and him in us.  That through our union with Him, we can know the Father loves us, just as He loves the only begotten Son, and our joy be made full, and we be kept from the world. 

Jesus says in John 14:3 I go to prepare a place for you, and if I go to prepare a place for you.  I will come again to receive you unto myself; that where I am, there you may be also.  

When Jesus says he will come again he’s not talking about the last day when he comes on the white horse.  He’s not talking about what’s been called the 2nd coming.  When Jesus says he will come again he’s talking about the Father pouring out the Holy Spirit.  The apostle Paul says in Galatians 4 the Father has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, whereby we cry Abba, Father.  

Jesus says in John 14:16-18 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it sees him not, neither knows him: but you know him; for he dwells with you, and shall be in you.  I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

Jesus says John 14:25-26 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send IN MY NAME, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Jesus went to make an abode for you in the Father’s heart.  You were always in the Father’s heart, but you couldn’t see the Father, so you weren’t dwelling in His love.  Jesus says I will come to you again; that where I am you can be with me; that just as I dwell in the light; just as I dwell in the Father’s love, you can be with me there.  I will be made manifest to you through the Comforter.  The Father and I will make our abode in you through the Holy Spirit; the Spirit of Truth.  I will come to you through the Spirit of Truth, and even as I’m teaching you now; the anointing of the Father, that is the Holy Spirit, will teach you to abide in me.  The Spirit will make me manifest to you.  He will guide you into the things that are revealed about the Father in me.  That just as my dwelling place is the Fathers love; just as I dwell in the light; in the Fathers bosom; I in him and him in me; you can dwell with us in the light; in our love.  

Throughout John 14,15,16,17 Jesus talks about giving us his peace.  He prays to the Father that His joy would be made full in us; that we would know the Father loves us just as He loves Jesus.  Peace I give you my peace I leave with you, not as the world gives ….. the world does not know the Father.  My peace is I am in the Father, and the Father is in me. I and the Father are one.  We are of the same nature.  You will be made a partaker with us in our divine nature through the words I speak to you.  The Father, and I will come to you, and we will make our home in you, through the Holy Spirit.  Just as I was fully persuaded that nothing can separate me from the Father’s love because I come from His bosom.  My peace will convince you, that nothing can separate you from the Father’s love.  Jesus was of the same nature as the Father.  Just as He poured Himself out for us.  He knew the Father would pour Himself out for him.  Jesus was begotten out of the Fathers love.

The Fathers love is His desire for you to be one with Him, and His Son, and His Holy Spirit; that your home be with them in the light of the divine nature …. You can see the Fathers love in Him condemning sin in the flesh of Jesus; you can see it in him deifying human flesh in the resurrection of Jesus.  It’s not a fickle action on the part of the Father.  Its not like a game time decision where he needs to individually make a decision to raise you up out of the miry clay, and its up in the air whether or not he will raise you out of the miry clay.  The Father manifests His love for us through the Son and the Holy Spirit.  The Father joins Himself to us through the Son, and the Spirit.  He comes to us; He makes our bodies His dwelling place, through the Son and the Spirit, and that guarantees our conclusion will be Him.   

Jesus knew his conclusion would be the glory he shared with the Father from before the world was.  Jesus knew nothing could keep the nature he shares with the Father, and the Holy Spirit, from being made manifest in his mortal body.  He knew the conclusion of his flesh would be deification, and nothing could keep his flesh from the immortality He shared with the Father from before the world was.  He didnt live moment by moment wondering what His end would be.  Because He is one with the Father by nature, he knew his conclusion would be the glorification of his flesh.  How can Gods conclusion be anything other than glory.  When the eternal Son joined himself to human flesh, it was already decided the end of that flesh would be deification.  This is the peace of Jesus.  This is the peace he leaves us.  He gives us this same peace by making us partakers with him in his divine nature.  John says Jesus came full of grace and truth, and of his fullness have we received and grace for grace.  Jesus made us partakers of the family in heaven by his grace.  He grafted us into the Father, Son, and Spirit, so we can see our end in them/will be them fully manifested in our flesh.
