Sunday Sermon | Christ's Prayer for the Apostles | John | Part 29

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 17:6-19. In this passage we see that the Lord Jesus has three priorities. The first priority is simply this idea that those to whom Christ spoke and offered redemption would know that the source of everything He has said, every promise He has made, every admonition, have as their source the Father in heaven. Secondly, we see that the Lord has a priority of guarding His people. The reality is life is dangerous for those who follow Jesus, for those who are committed to Him and His word. The third priority is sanctification and growing in holiness.It’s reasonable for us, as His redeemed, to understand His priorities. Our focus should not be on the danger from which we are guarded or on our sanctification but on God Himself. As we walk toward God, these other things will fall into place.
