John 14:1-14

Can you imagine how the disciples were feeling as we left off last week? Let’s recap the news the disciples had received during this short period of time. Jesus just told them He was going away. He had previously told them He was going to die in John 12:32. He told them that one of them was going to be a traitor. He just told Peter that he would deny Jesus 3 times. And in Matthew, it is recorded that during this supper, that all would fall away (Matt 26:31). That much bad news in such a short period of time is bound to weigh very heavily. The disciples needed some encouragement, and that is just what Jesus is going to do as we will see today.
