“Pastor,
I just heard this and I am wondering just what it is. The Jesus'
Testament, is this a book of the New Testament?...”

Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
Recorded in John 14, are some of our Savior's last earthly
words, to His disciples. And they are words of encouragement, and
cheer, mixed with sorrow. He demonstrated to them, the nearness of
The Father, and that He was returning to Him. He wanted them to have
a glimpse of their heavenly home, The Fathers' “house of many
mansions.” He promised them the comfort of The Holy Spirit, someone
who would, empower and teach them, and who would always be with them.
The
Jesus' Testament:
John
14:1-31 KJV
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.
4
And whither I go ye know, and The Way ye know.
5
Thomas saith unto Him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how
can we know The Way?
6
Jesus saith unto him, I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life: no man
cometh unto The Father, but by Me.
7 If
ye had known Me, ye should have known My Father also: and from
henceforth ye know Him, and have seen Him.
8
Philip saith unto Him, Lord, show us The Father, and it sufficeth us.
9
Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast
thou not known Me, Philip? he that hath seen Me hath seen The Father;
and how sayest thou then, Show us The Father?
10
Believest thou not that I am in The Father, and The Father in Me? the
words that I speak unto you I speak not of Myself: but The Father
that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works.
11
Believe Me that I am in The Father, and The Father in Me: or else
believe Me for the very works' sake.
12
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works
that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do;
because I go unto My Father.
13
And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that The
Father may be glorified in The Son.
14
If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it.
15
If ye love Me, keep My commandments.
16
And I will pray The Father, and He shall give you another Comforter,
that He may abide with you for ever;
17
Even The Spirit Of Truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it
seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him: but ye know Him; for He dwelleth
with you, and shall be in you.
18 I
will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19
Yet a little while, and the world seeth Me no more; but ye see Me:
because I live, ye shall live also.
20
At that day ye shall know that I am in My Father, and ye in Me, and I
in you.
21
He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth
Me: and he that loveth Me shall be loved of My Father, and I will
love him, and will manifest Myself to him.
22
Judas saith unto Him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt
manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love Me, he will keep My
Words: and My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and
make Our abode with him.
24
He that loveth Me not keepeth not My sayings: and The Word which ye
hear is not Mine, but The Father's which sent Me.
25
These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
26
But The Comforter, which is The Holy Ghost, whom The Father will send
in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to
your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
27
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world
giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let
it be afraid.
28
Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto
you. If ye loved Me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto The
Father: for My Father is greater than I.
29
And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come
to pass, ye might believe.
30
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world
cometh, and hath nothing in Me.
31
But that the world may know that I love The Father; and as The Father
gave Me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
What sacred words of comfort and love. Our Good Shepherd, goes on
before us, calling us by name, He has prepared The Way for us!
Romans
8:37-39 NLT
37
No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through
Christ, who loved us.
38
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s
love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our
fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers
of hell can separate us from God’s love.
39
No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in
all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God
that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
All
People That On Earth Do Dwell
All people that on earth do dwell,
sing to The LORD with cheerful voice;
Him serve with mirth, His praise forth tell;
come ye before Him and rejoice.
Know that The LORD is God indeed;
without our aid He did us make;
we are His flock, He doth us feed,
and for His sheep He doth us take.
O enter then His gates with praise,
approach with joy His courts unto;
praise, laud, and bless His name always,
for it is seemly so to do.
Because The LORD our God is good,
His mercy is forever sure;
His truth at all times firmly stood
and shall from age to age endure.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow;
praise Him, all creatures here below;
praise Him above, ye heav'nly host;
praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!
