That They All May Be One

Pastor Kerry Wilson

 John 17:11-23 (NKJV)
• 11 Now I am no longer in the world, but these are
in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep
through Your name those whom You have given
Me,[a] that they may be one as We are. 12 While I
was with them in the world,[b] I kept them in Your
name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept;[c]
and none of them is lost except the son of
perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. 13
But now I come to You, and these things I speak
in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled
in themselves.
 John 17:11-23 (NKJV) Contd.
• 14 I have given them Your word; and the world has
hated them because they are not of the world,
just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not pray that
You should take them out of the world, but that
You should keep them from the evil one. 16 They
are not of the world, just as I am not of the
world. 17 Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word
is truth. 18 As You sent Me into the world, I also
have sent them into the world. 19 And for their
sakes I sanctify Myself, that they also may be
sanctified by the truth.
 Psalm 133:1
• A Song of Ascents. Of David.
• 1 Behold, how good and how
pleasant it is
For brethren to dwell
together in unity!
 Ephesians 4:3

• 3 endeavoring to keep the

unity of the Spirit in the
bond of peace.
 Romans 8:18-30
• 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present
time are not worthy to be compared with the
glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the
earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits
for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the
creation was subjected to futility, not willingly,
but because of Him who subjected it in hope; 21
because the creation itself also will be delivered
from the bondage of corruption into the glorious
liberty of the children of God.
 Romans 8:18-30
• 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth
pangs together until now. 23 Not only that, but we also who have
the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within
ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our
body. 24 For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not
hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? 25 But if we
hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with
perseverance.
26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not

know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself
makes intercession for us[a] with groanings which cannot be
uttered. 27 Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind
of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints
according to the will of God.
 Romans 8:18-30
• 28 And we know that all things work together
for good to those who love God, to those who
are the called according to His purpose. 29 For
whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be
conformed to the image of His Son, that He
might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He

also called; whom He called, these He also

justified; and whom He justified, these He also
glorified.
 Matthew 24:37-39
• 37But as the days of Noah were, so also will
the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in
the days before the flood, they were eating
and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage,
until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and
did not know until the flood came and took
them all away, so also will the coming of the
Son of Man be.
