John
16:3 – They will do such things
because they have not known the Father or me.
John 15:21 – They will treat you this way
because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me.
John 14:11 – Believe me when I say that I
am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence
of the works themselves.
John 17:22-23 – I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one—I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to
complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.
Application:
- · Again the Father and the Son are linked.
- · Because Christians do not belong to the world, persecution from the world is inevitable.
- · Faith includes believing that Jesus is one with the Father.
- · Again the emphasis on unity has an evangelistic aim.
