John's Gospel - Session 41. Jesus Prays for Himself

John 17 is a unique chapter in the gospels because it is the fullest record of Jesus praying. Often He prayed but we don't know much about what He prayed because He prayed alone. But here He prayed in the presence of witnesses - the disciples. There are 3 parts to His prayer: He prayed for 1) Himself; 2) the disciples who were alive at the time; 3) those who would believe in Him (us). In this video we look at the first part of His prayer.
