John 14:1 Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.

Can you imagine how confused the disciples would have been if Jesus had simply started off by saying that He is God!

Jesus first prepared them to this fact by saying if they believed in God, then they should also believe in Him. Then He expanded on this by saying He was going to prepare a place for them to stay…

They had given up their former lives to follow Jesus and learn all they could from Him. Now He was giving them comfort in saying what He was already preparing for their futures. This same comfort He is offering us too!
