This week's broadcast is the sermon I gave at Church of the Messiah. 
The sermon was called "Optimisn, Pessimism, or Christian Hope" 
 It is part of my series, "Knowing Jesus: John's Intimate Biography."

"Optimism, Pessimism, 
or Christian Hope"
  
Today’s Reading:  John 17:20-26  (ESV)
20 “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, 21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, 23 I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. 24 Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. 26 I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”

Optimism, Pessimism or Christian Hope

John 17:20-26
  1. Righteous Father, please grow in me a humble confidence in the trustworthiness and truthfulness of Your word, and a competence to bear clear witness about Jesus.
  2. Jesus became one with you to make you right with God. By faith in Him, you become one with Him, and are made right with God.
  3. The believers union with the Godhead, forms a unity among believers, that bears witness to the Lord Jesus, to the ends of the world.
  4. Righteous Father, please grow in all true Christians deep bonds of affection, and partnership in mission, so that every people group will know that Jesus loves them and died to save them.
  5. Righteous Father, please grip me with the Gospel, and so free and heal my heart, that day by day I will feed on the sure and certain hope that I will behold and enter into the eternal weight of glory of the Lord Jesus Christ.
