"Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? and if I go and prepare a place for you; I will come back and take you to be with me that you may also be where I am.'' John 14:1-3
