Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my father's house are many mansions: if it were not so,
I would not have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again,
and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye maybe also.
John 14: 1-3
