John 17:22-23

John 17:22-23. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Surely the passage seems to culminate here. These words rise like the peak of a mighty Alp almost out of our sight into the clear brightness of heaven - "hast loved them as thou has loved me." Now, believer, thou canst not fully comprehend this, but believe it - that as surely as the Father loves the Son, as and after the same manner also he loves you - without beginning, without measure, without change, without end "Thou hast loved them as thou hast loved me."
