John 17:23

John 17:23. And that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me

This is a great deep, the words are very simple and clear, but their meaning is unfathomable. Is it really true that the Father has loved his chosen ones as he has loved his only-begotten Son? It is such a wondrous thing that one might be willing to lie awake at night to meditate upon the amazing truth here revealed in our Saviour’s words: "Thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me."
