John:17:6-19
Seeker Overlay ON
* »
I have manifested your name to the men whom you have given me out of the world .
They were yours ;
you gave them to me ,
and they have kept your word .
*
Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you .
*
For I have given them the words which you have given me ,
and they have received them and know in truth that I came from you ;
and they have believed that you sent me .
*
I pray for them .
I am not praying for the world ,
but for those whom you have given me ,
for they are yours .
*
And all mine are yours ,
and yours are mine ,
and I am glorified in them .
*
And now I am no longer in the world ,
but they are in the world ,
and I am coming to you .
Holy Father ,
keep them in your name
the name you gave me
that they may be one ,
even as we are one .
*
While I was with them ,
I kept them in your name
the name you gave me .
I have guarded them ,
and none of them is lost except the son of perdition ,
that the Scripture might be fulfilled .
*
But now I am coming to you ,
and these things I speak in the world ,
that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves .
*
I have given them your word ;
and the world has hated them because they are not of the world ,
even as I am not of the world .
*
I do not pray that you should take them out of the world ,
but that you should keep them from the evil one .
*
They are not of the world ,
even as I am not of the world .
*
Sanctify them by the truth ;
your word is truth .
*
As you sent me into the world ,
I also have sent them into the world .
*
And for their sakes I sanctify myself ,
that they also may be sanctified in truth .
