Pericope: John 14:1-7 - “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe

in God; [a] believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many

rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare

a place for you? [b]  3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will

come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may

be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.” [c]  5 Thomas

said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can

we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the

truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through

me. 7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father

also. [d] From now on you do know him and have seen him.”

Sermon Text: John 14:5 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not

know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 

Sermon Title: Which Way

In our text, Thomas speaks up on behalf of all of us. He

asked Jesus. Vs. 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know

where you are going. How can we know the way?” 

Point 1. A way of life – vs 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, …

a) Prayer – vs. 13 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do,

that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

b) Prepare for storms in life – Matthew 14:29 29 “Come,” he said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water

and came toward Jesus. Matthew 8:23-26 - 23 Then he got

into the boat and his disciples followed him. 24 Suddenly a

furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept

over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25 The disciples went

and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to

drown!” 26 He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so

afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the

waves, and it was completely calm.

c) He taught them how to serve others – Luke 10:27 27 He

answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and

with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your

mind’ [a] ; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ [b] ”… 29 But he

wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my

neighbor?”

d) He taught them how to study the word in verse 15 “If you

love me, you will keep my commandments.

Point 2: A secure way verse 18 “I will not leave you as orphans; I

will come to you

Point 3: A prepared place, Vs 2 In my Father's house are many

rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare

a place for you?

Life application

1. Admit your way is not working

2. Give up your way and accept Jesus’ way
