- Live Notes
“Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I said this on account o the people standing around, that they may believe you sent me.”
“Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you.”
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love on another; just as I have loved you, you also are to love on another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for on another.”
“I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, tha they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in your, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.”
“For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve on another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: ‘ You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” But if you bit and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another.”
“If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.”
“I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.”
“And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth. I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word.”
“For our sake he made Him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.”
“Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
