Them Which Shall Believe
It is the highest wonder known to man that the infinite God should condescend to join Himself to our humanity and take our nature into Himself. Five times in these few verses the Lord Jesus speaks of the oneness and union that exists between Him and His people under the terms of the covenant of grace. Here the Lord is telling us, in this High-priestly prayer, that all who have faith in Christ are united with Him and with His Father. We are loved by the Father with the self-same love as the Father loves the Son.

John Berridge And The Duty Faith Issue

In sending on the sermon, he says: “It occurred to me it might prove, by God’s grace, a blessing to readers of ‘Waymarks,’ and for that reason I have sent it to you.”

Sanctify Them

The Father sanctifies, the Holy Spirit sanctifies and the Lord Jesus sanctifies His people. Those sanctified are set apart for the glory of God. They are made holy and blameless in His sight. Ultimately, they will be delivered pure and spotless into the presence of God. Sanctification, like justification, is a free gift and a sovereign blessing from our loving Father.

Nowadays, many parents know the gender of their child before it is born, such is the power of science and technology. I remember being intrigued as a young boy to hear my mother list the several possible names that had been considered for me and the alternatives depending upon whether I turned out to be a girl or a boy.
