In John 17:6, He says, “I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were and thou gavest them me, and they have kept thy Word.” You’ll notice that the church has been given to the Lord Jesus. The believers have. And then again in verse 9: “I pray for them. I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me for they are thine.” And so we have been given as a love gift from the Father to the Son. And some of us may feel like He didn’t get very much, but it’s not what we are; it’s what He’s going to make out of us that’s important.
