John 14
1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
2 Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
How could have Jesus said that when, as a Jew, he said that the Kingdom of God is akin to a peaceful state of mind we are supposed to let it inhabit within ourselves and not a place to go to? (Luke 17:21)
