John 17:17-26

17 "1Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth.
18 "As 2You sent Me into the world, 3I also have sent them into the world.
19 "For their sakes I 4sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be 5sanctified 6in truth.
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; 7even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, 8so that the world may believe that 9You sent Me.

Their Future Glory

22 "The 10glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one;
23 11I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that 12You sent Me, and 13loved them, even as You have loved Me.
24 "Father, I desire that 14they also, whom You have given Me, 15be with Me where I am, so that they may see My 16glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before 17the foundation of the world.
25 "O 18righteous Father, although 19the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that 20You sent Me;
26 and 21I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that 22the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them."
