John 17:11

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 17:11. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, -

We also know that we, too, are in the world; we have good reason to feel it, and sometimes to mourn it.

John 17:11. And I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

When God keeps us, he keeps us in unity, our divisions are not the result of his work. When we get away from his keeping, and get away from his Word, then we are sundered in heart from him and from one another; but by his keeping he keeps his children one.
