John 17:20-26

20 "I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word;
21 that they may all be one; 1even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, 2so that the world may believe that 3You sent Me.

Their Future Glory

22 "The 4glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one;
23 5I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that 6You sent Me, and 7loved them, even as You have loved Me.
24 "Father, I desire that 8they also, whom You have given Me, 9be with Me where I am, so that they may see My 10glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before 11the foundation of the world.
25 "O 12righteous Father, although 13the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that 14You sent Me;
26 and 15I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that 16the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them."
