Theme: Three reasons why Jesus prays for the disciples’ protection so we are reminded of the persistent dangers of living in the world.

John 17:13-16 (NASB)

13 “But now I come to Thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy made full in themselves.

14 “I have given them Thy word; and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15 “I do not ask Thee to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one.

16“They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.”

Three Reminders:

  1. First is where He is going – to the Father
  2. Next is why He has spoken to them – His joy made full in them
  3. Finally is what He has given them – God’s Word

I. The Hatred of the world – v. 14

II The necessity of remaining in the world – v. 15a

III The opposition of the evil one – v. 15b
