John 17:15-26
17:15 I am not asking you to take them out of the world, but that you keep them safe
from the evil one.
17:16 They do not belong to the world
just as I do not belong to the world.
17:17 Set them apart
in the truth; your word is truth.
17:18 Just as you sent me into the world, so I sent them into the world.
17:19 And I set myself apart
on their behalf,
so that they too may be truly set apart.
Jesus Prays for Believers Everywhere
17:20 “I am not praying only on their behalf, but also on behalf of those who believe in me through their testimony,
17:21 that they will all be one, just as you, Father, are in me and I am in you. I pray that they will be in us, so that the world will believe that you sent me.
17:22 The glory you gave to me I have given to them, that they may be one just as we are one –
17:23 I in them and you in me – that they may be completely one, so that the world will know that you sent me, and you have loved them just as you have loved me.
17:24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, so that they can see my glory that you gave me because you loved me before the creation of the world.
17:25 Righteous Father, even if the world does not know you, I know you, and these men know that you sent me.
17:26 I made known your name to them, and I will continue to make it known, so that the love you have loved me with may be in them, and I may be in them.”
