Jesus Is the Way, the Truth, and the Life | John 14:1-7 | Nathan Hughes

Title: Jesus Is the Way, the Truth, and the Life
Main Text: John 14:1-7, 16-19, 25-27; Romans 8:15-16

Key Points:

Jesus Brings Comfort in the Face of Fear

On the night before His crucifixion, Jesus comforts His disciples rather than seeking comfort Himself.

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.” (John 14:1)

The remedy for a troubled heart? Faith.

The Deep Longing for Home

Jesus says He’s preparing a place in His Father’s house.

Our souls crave belonging, safety, and unconditional love—and Jesus fulfills that longing.

Jesus Is the Way to the Father

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)

Through Jesus, we not only gain knowledge of God but a personal connection with the Father.

The Gift of the Holy Spirit

Jesus promises the Spirit will live in us—“The Holy Spirit inside you is better than Jesus beside you.”

The Spirit brings peace, guidance, and reminds us of what Jesus taught (John 14:26-27).

Adopted as God’s Children

Romans 8:15–16 shows that we’ve been adopted, and we can cry out “Abba, Father.”

The Spirit assures us that we belong—not based on performance, but on love and grace.

Final Reflection:
Are you living as if you’re truly loved by the Father? Or are you still trying to earn what Jesus already secured for you?
