John 17 is one of the great chapters of the Bible as it records the longest prayer that Jesus ever offered during His public ministry. The saints have loved it over the years.“The words are as clear and calm as a mirrors, but the thoughts as deep and glowing as God's fathomless love to man: Hence all efforts to exhaust them are in vain” (Church Historian, Philip Schaff). Every Christian will enjoy being with Christ and listening afresh as the Lord prays for His people.
