John 17:9-14
_ _ I pray for them not as individuals merely, but as representatives of all such in every succeeding age (see on John 17:20).
_ _ not for the world for they had been given Him “out of the world” (John 17:6), and had been already transformed into the very opposite of it. The things sought for them, indeed, are applicable only to such. |
John 17:9
I pray not for the world Not in these petitions, which are adapted to the state of believers only. (He prays for the world at John 17:21, John 17:23, that they may believe That they may know God hath sent him.) This no more proves that our Lord did not pray for the world, both before and afterward, than his praying for the apostles alone, John 17:6-19, proves that he did not pray for them also which shall believe through their word, John 17:20. |
- pray for:
John 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; John 16:26-27 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: ... For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. Luke 8:34 When they that fed [them] saw what was done, they fled, and went and told [it] in the city and in the country. Hebrews 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. Hebrews 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, [which are] the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: 1 John 2:1-2 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: ... And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world. 1 John 5:19 [And] we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
