John 17- Jesus Prayed for Us

Jesus Prayed for Us

I know this may not be that big of a deal for some, but it just further cements the understanding how humble Jesus was. Furthering the point, being that Jesus was fully God and fully human, I also really liked John 17:7, regarding Jesus acknowledging that everything that he had was from god and solidifying that people now knew that. In addition, Jesus desired for us to be with him and with God as he was with God.


In John 17:14-18, Jesus says that he has given us God's word, the world hates us for not being of the world (but being of God), then he asks God to keep us from the evil one. He is praying for our temptations. And lastly, he says that he has sent us into the world as God sent him into the world. Jesus told us to do as God had Jesus do. Go into the world, not be of the world and spread the word to all.


We know what Jesus said. We know what Jesus did. We know how Jesus came to us and that he was fully God and fully human. It is up to us, through Christ and the Holy Spirit, to tell others about him as God sent him to reunite us with God for redemption from our sins.
