Preparation for Wednesday July 22nd, 2015

This week we'll continue our investigation of John chapter 14.  

Take a look at the statement Jesus makes in Jn 14:4, and then Thomas's response in verse 5--what comes to mind after reading Thomas's question?  Does it make you question whether or not Thomas has a saving relationship with the Lord?  

Now Jesus's response in verse 6 is very well known, and often quoted without regard to the context.  Just two things for you to consider for this coming week:
   1) Is Jesus saying He is one thing or three things?  Can you briefly describe each?

   2)  Is verse 6 Jesus's complete answer to Thomas, or does it perhaps run at least as far as verse 17?  (If it does run to verse 17, is Jesus addressing Thomas's salvation--or something else all together?)
