The Father Revealed- The Way, Truth, and Life part 3

We established that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, that no one comes to the Father except by (through) Jesus (John 14:6).
Remember that Jesus said in John 8:58, "before Abraham was, I Am." Now read Exodus 3:13 where Moses said to God, "Who shall I say you are?" and God said to him, "Tell them I Am Who I Am; say to the children of Israel, I Am has sent me."
We know that Jesus always did just what the Father said for Him to do.
Read John 14:7-11
V7: "If you had known me, you would have known my Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him."
V9: "Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, "show us the Father"?
V10: "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works."
V11: "Believe Me that I am in the Father and Father is in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. "
Now read along with me John 14: 19-21
"A little while longer and world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also. At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. He who has my Commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him." The word manifest also means reveal.
