NASB | John 14:6 Jesus *said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. |
Bible Question: Could "me" be John? I am at a loss for how to respond to someone who says that in the phrase "no one comes to the Father except through Me," John is referring to himself not Jesus. I think it is very clear. The quotes would have ended after the word life, if John started talking. |
Bible Answer: I find the opposite is very clear. This is obviously Jesus speaking and it should be obvious to you too if you read the rest of the passage you have quoted. Whenever John refers to himself in his gospel, he always refers to himself as the disciple whom Jesus loved. There is absolutely no mention of John speaking in this passage. |
