“But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.” (James 3:17-18)
Main thoughts: I. Jesus prays that the CHURCH may be UNITED. II. Jesus prays that the WORLD may be PERSUADED. III. Jesus prays that his MISSION may be COMPLETED.
Summary: Jesus’ prayer is that we who KNOW God’s love would SHOW God’s love to a world that doesn’t know it. Do you know the love of God? Does your life show the love of God?
