John 17:14

Jesus Prays For His Disciples

¹³ And now I come to thee; and speak these things in the world, that they may have my joy complete in themselves. ¹⁴  I have given unto them thy word; and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world. ¹⁵ I do not pray that you may take them out of the world, but that you may keep them from the evil one.

Not of the World

Of the World

Do Not Belong To The World
