Glory, Faith And Love

John 17: 22, 23

"I have given them the glory You gave Me, so that they may be one, as We are. ... Then the world will know that You sent Me. ..."

Jesus has just prayed in verse 10 that those the Father has given Him are His glory, that we are His glory. Now He gives us the glory He received from the Father, to the intent that we be united as one in Him as He is in the Father.

When we are one in Him, that's when the world will understand that Jesus really did come in the flesh from the Father in heaven. 

Oh, that we would be one in faith and love, to believe the Truth and display it in our lives by loving God and showing that love for God by loving our fellow man, our brothers and sisters and the world.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
