“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.” John 14:12.
“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know. Thomas said to Him, ‘Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?’” John 14:3-5.
“… [Jesus] rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself. After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.” John 13:4-5.
It is this majestic person Jesus who “rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself.” Christ, being the eternal God in heaven, laid aside His heavenly robes along with His prerogatives as God and became a Man, and not just a Man but a servant, to minister to mankind.
