Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Fathers house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you. I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.
John 14:1- 4
