It was the last few days before Jesus was crucified. He giving the disciples last minute instructions. After three years of teaching, Jesus was explaining who He was to the disciples. He wanted them to remember all that He said. Jesus explained that in heaven were many mansions. He said if I go away, I will come again and receive you to Myself. That’s when Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father but by Me. Jesus wanted them to understand. It is unfortunate that we learn by tribulation. What the disciples went through in following days, shook everything they knew. It was done so God could set them in order. Peter had to betray Jesus. The disciples had to run in fear. What Jesus did, He had to do alone. It is the same with us, even though your church is behind you. You have to make the decision to step out in faith and follow God. This decision is for you alone.
