Acts 13: 26- 33

13:26 Noble brothers, sons of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, it is to you the Word of this salvation has been sent.
13:27 For those who were living in Jerusalem, and its rulers, heeding neither him, nor the voices of the Prophets that are read on every Sabbath, fulfilled these by judging him.
13:28 And although they found no case for death against him, they petitioned Pilate, so that they might put him to death.
13:29 And when they had fulfilled everything that had been written about him, taking him down from the tree, they placed him in a tomb.
13:30 Yet truly, God raised him up from the dead on the third day.
13:31 And he was seen for many days by those who went up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who even now are his witnesses to the people.
13:32 And we are announcing to you that the Promise, which was made to our fathers,
13:33 has been fulfilled by God for our children by raising up Jesus, just as it has been written in the second Psalm also: ‘You are my Son. This day I have begotten you.’

John 14: 1- 6

14:1 “Do not let your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe in me also.
14:2 In my Father’s house, there are many dwelling places. If there were not, I would have told you. For I go to prepare a place for you.
14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will return again, and then I will take you to myself, so that where I am, you also may be.
14:4 And you know where I am going. And you know the way.”
14:5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
14:6 Jesus said to him: “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
