In this sermon, from John 17:1–19, we studied Jesus’ prayer to the Father before His sacrifice, revealing His heart for glory, preservation, and sanctification of His people.

Key Sermon Points:

• Jesus’ desire for the Father to be glorified through Him.

• The gift and meaning of eternal life—knowing God.

• Christ’s prayer for the preservation of His disciples in the world.

• The believer’s identity as not of the world but sent into it.

• The power of being sanctified through the truth of God’s Word.
