John 14:1 "Let not your heart be troubled:ye believe in God, believe also in me. 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. 3 Ans 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. 4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. 5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? 10 Believest thou not 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 dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or believe me for the very works sake. 12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to my Father."  Jesus makes it clear here in John's gospel, that He and God are one and the same. He gives the disciples an exhortation to believe the truth. The disciples were with Jesus, and witnessed all of the miracles he performed. Thus the question to Philip, concerning his unbelief. How could one witness, water being changed to wine, feeding 5000 people with two fish and two loaves of bread, the lame walking again, the blind receiving their sight, the dead being raised back up to life. Could any mortal accomplish these miracles. No, only God could. Had any of the gods of the known world performed miracles such as these. No, they were made of stone, wood, ect.. They could not see nor hear themselves. Jesus Christ is calling them, then and us now, to believe on him by faith. - photo credit: soulstratum:tumblr_nh6gkhAJqb1sn4o7po1_500
