Come Together

If you could save people from death, wouldn't you?

”I ask not only on behalf of these, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one. As you, Father, are in me and I am in you, may they also be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. Father, I desire that those also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory, which you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world. “Righteous Father, the world does not know you, but I know you; and these know that you have sent me. I made your name known to them, and I will make it known, so that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.” - John 17:20-26

Jesus prayed to the Father to see if he could bring along all who believed in him.

We are all one, he said, the same way I am one with you.

Jesus is opening the door for all of us.  We can all have a place in his kingdom.  Jesus explains that through him, we can come to know the Father, and that explains why we believe our path to salvation is only through Christ.

By knowing Jesus, we come to know the Father, and if we truly believe, we will be with him in his kingdom.

How cool is that?

Wouldn't you want everyone to know they can come too?

We may not be able to bring people to know God, but we can help them get to know Jesus, and that is all it takes.

More to come...
