John 17 is often called the Holy of Holies of the New Testament — the most intimate window into the prayer life of Jesus. As He prepares to go to the cross, He prays first for Himself, asking the Father to glorify the Son so that the Son may glorify the Father.
This sermon examines what it means that Jesus has been given authority over all flesh, why the cross is the moment of ultimate glory, and how Christ's intercession is the foundation of our assurance before God.
