Rev. Dr. Adam Koontz, pastor and evangelist at Trinity Lutheran Church in Denver, CO, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study John 17:1-10.
As Jesus’ time with His disciples on Maundy Thursday draws to a close, He prays to His Father. The hour has come, and Jesus asks the Father to glorify Him so that He may give eternal life to those who have been given to Him. This eternal life is true faith in the Father and Jesus, His Son, and comes through the glory that Jesus through His cross. Jesus prays that the ones who have kept His Word and have believed His Word would be kept in the Father’s name.
“The Word Made Flesh” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the Gospel according to St. John. The disciple whom Jesus loved wrote his Gospel account as an eyewitness to Jesus’ life and ministry. As we read the Word of God recorded by St. John, the Holy Spirit works in us so that we might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and so have life by faith in His name.
