Proof that Jesus told the apostles he is the Father


John 14: 6-13

Jesus explains to his apostles that he is the Father. This is a very powerful scripture that will inform the world and the universe that Jesus is God the Father. If one won’t believe Jesus, then who will they believe? Jesus speaks plainly to his disciples about who he is; so there would be no doubt that they were speaking to God himself through his manifestation as the Son (John 1:10, Colossians 1:19).

Let’s take a look at how the disciples were perplexed and didn’t understand what Jesus was saying. Jesus said, I am the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Jesus is speaking about the Father as if the Father was someone other than himself. One can’t come to the Father except by Jesus because, Jesus is the Father and if you don’t know Jesus, then you don’t know the Father. In other words, you will have to know Jesus Christ.

Then, Jesus said, If you had known me, you should have known my father also and from this point on, you know him, the Father – Jesus, and have seen him. Jesus said the same thing twice. Philip asked Jesus to show us the Father and we will be satisfied. Jesus had just plainly explained to Philip that he is the Father – Isaiah 9:6. However, Jesus told him again. Jesus said, Philip how is it that you have been with me all this time and you haven’t known me? Then Jesus tells him again. He that has seen me has seen the Father, so why are you asking me to show us the Father? (I Corinthians 10:4) 

Verse 11. Jesus verifies what he has said on many occasions that he is in the Father and the Father is in the Son. Thus, I and my Father are one - the same person – one God (John 10:30).
