We explore John 17, the longest recorded prayer in the New Testament, often called Jesus's high priestly prayer. This intimate moment occurs at the climax of the upper room discourse as Jesus prepares for his crucifixion.
• Jesus lifts his eyes to heaven, addressing God intimately as "Father"
• He acknowledges "the hour has come" – the pivotal moment of crucifixion
• Jesus prays to be glorified so he can glorify the Father
• Eternal life is defined as knowing God and Jesus Christ personally
• Jesus references his pre-existence and shared glory with the Father
• The prayer shows Jesus's desire to return to his full heavenly glory
Read the rest of John 17 and consider how your perspective might change if you lived as though eternal life begins now rather than after death.
