Chapter 17 – the witness
of the aliens – “I have given them Your Word and the world has hated them,
because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.”
Shortly before His death, Jesus was praying for His
followers asking that His Father would sanctify them in the truth of His Word
(v17). If followers of Jesus look and act
differently it’s because they are to be spreading, by word and action, the love
and Good News about Jesus. And they’re
told that they are ambassadors for Jesus – representing Him in a place that isn’t
really their home. It’s not easy, but
it’s necessary.
