John 17:20-26 - Jesus Prays For The Unity Of Believers

²⁰ But it is not only for them that I am interceding, but also for those who believe in me through their Message, ²¹ That they all may be one--that as thou, Father, art in union with us--and so the world may believe that thou hast sent me as thy Messenger. ²² I have given them the honor which thou has given me, that they may be one as we are one-- ²³ I in union with them and thou with me--that so they may be perfected in their union, and thus the world may know that thou hast sent me as thy Messenger, and that thou has loved them as thou hast loved me. ²⁴ Father, my desire for all those whom thou has given me is that they may be with me where I am, so that they may see the honor which thou has given me; for thou didst love me before the beginning of the world. ²⁵ O righteous Father, though the world did not know thee, I knew thee; and these men knew that thou has sent me as thy Messenger. ²⁶ I have made thee known to them, and will do so still; that the love that thou has had for me may be in their hearts, and that I may be in them also."
