How do we know that Jesus prepares a place for believers?
Answered in 2 sources
Jesus explicitly states in John 14:3 that He goes to prepare a place for His followers, which assures their inclusion in His presence.
In John 14:2-3, Jesus comforts His disciples by telling them that He goes to prepare a place for them in His Father’s house, which speaks to the intimate relationship He has with His people. His preparation is directly linked to His sacrificial death, which opens the way for believers to have access to God. The biblical narrative consistently affirms that those in Christ have a secured place with Him in His eternal kingdom. This includes not only a future hope but also a present reality of Christ’s indwelling presence among believers, hence assuring us that we have a place in His family and in His divine plan.
