       Our arrival and yet conclusion comes upon us today in the final sermon of the Gospel John series. It’s tuff to even believe that’s the case, but it is. Nonetheless, good times have been had through this journey, and the speaker certainly has enjoyed going over these things. Indeed, the Gospels, in and of themselves, contain a wealth of information—information that’s been turned to and looked over by most in the world who are seeking wisdom.

Commonly, the prayer has come to be known as Jesus’ High Priestly Prayer. The words come to us at the climax of Jesus’ time spent on the earth, and really, at the end of the day, represents the transition from Jesus’ earthly ministry for the Jewish people to the sacrifice he is making for the whole world, for all the people around the entirety of the earth.

Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
