I AM In The FATHER, And The FATHER Is In ME, And You In ME

"If you know ME, you will know the FATHER also; indeed you know HIM, and you have seen HIM.
Philip asked HIM, 'LORD, show us the FATHER, and that is enough.'  JESUS said to him, 'What!  I have been with you so long and still you do not know ME, Philip?  Whoever sees ME sees the FATHER; how can you say, 'Show us the FATHER'?  Do you not believe that I AM in the FATHER and the FATHER is in ME?
All that I say to you, I do not say of MYSELF.  The FATHER who dwells in ME is doing HIS own work.  Believe ME when I say that I AM in the FATHER and the FATHER is in ME; at least believe it on the evidence of these works that I do.
Truly, I say to you, the one who believes in ME will do the same works that I do; and he will even do greater than these, for I AM going to the FATHER.  Everything you ask in MY name, I will do, so that the FATHER may be glorified in the Son.  Indeed, anything you ask, calling upon MY name, I will do it." - John 14:7-14 

(I AM in the FATHER, and the FATHER is in ME, and you in ME.  CHRIST makes us enter into the divine family.  Thus, we no longer speak of approaching GOD as if HE were far from us.  We no longer feel as if GOD were a single person in front of us.  We enter "into" the mysterious life of the divine Persons who share everything and who are the one and only GOD.  Material things cannot penetrate each other; but in the world of the spirit such is possible.  CHRIST is in the FATHER and the FATHER in HIM.  They make their home within us.)
