The Unchanging Word Bible study with Dr. John G. Mitchell concludes John 17 before we move on to the next chapter.
Jesus speaks of His glory in this chapter.
In verse 5 Jesus speaks of His eternal glory.
Then in verses 22-24 Jesus speaks of His glory in two other ways.
One glory is an acquired and shared glory.
The other glory is a moral and beheld glory.
His acquired glory is shared with His disciples,
the other, His moral glory, is beheld by His disciples.
Dr. Mitchell goes on to point out that this
upper room discourse of John begins
in chapter 13 verse 1 with love
and here in John 17 the last verse ends with love,
Jesus' divine love for His own which by contrast
is distinct from the world's love for its own.
To conclude this 17th chapter of John,
turn with Dr. Mitchell in your Bible to John 17 verse 22.
