John, just as a matter of interest, can you explain three things concerning the last five words of that verse?
Who or what is "the root"?
Who or what is "you"?
How does the root support "you"?
Thank you.

In what year did Russia decree its pogrom?

John for JESUS wrote:
Yes, they were not yet saved. We agree that people receive eternal life after they believe.
“I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.
John 17:6
However, Jesus is speaking in the past tense. He already manifested Himself to those the Father gave Him. That was part of His earthly ministry before this verse. They belonged to the Father in the past, but were given to the Son. They were keepers of God's law in the Old Testament and transitioned over to the New Covenant through faith in Jesus Christ. Read Chapter 17 a little slower, you'll get it!

I am praying also that we believer's strive for the same - manifesting the truth which is found in Christ alone.

I believe what we are hearing from people on the world stage - Duterte and Michael Cohen is a heads up for believers. Pray for these men.

I believe Michael sees himself caught between The Rock and the hard hearted Russian who can have Michael assassinated at the blink of an eye. Michael finds himself in a place of saving our democracy at the possibility of losing his life through assassination; contemplating suicide at the mere thought of being assassinated; or finding the mercy of God through the counsel of “The Reverend” Al Sharpton.
My prayer is that “The Reverend” told Michael how he could be right with God. Pray for Michael.
Please pray that that occurred and that God preserves Michael in order that his testimony will save our nation from the severe judgment of God by Putin ruling our government.

We all like sheep have gone astray. But the Lord …

Hi Jim.

I feel your burden for the deep things of
God.
Many believers are fed pablum and have not
idea about the privilege of knowing God and
delivering his truths to others.

I evangelize alone when pressed with so much
knowledge of him and his Christ. I cannot
contain myself at times and go alone;
although, it is believed that two should go.
A threefold cord is not easily broken.
However, each time I go people always listen
with concentration. None so far, has been
rude. I think they want living water.
God moves in spite of me.

Our hearts are left with an unrelenting burden simply by this man upholding the Constitution concerning equality under the law.

I believe we have lost the ability to mourn over sin; even our particular sin(s).

Our heavenly father is grieved. I'm sure. "Ichabod" should be on many church marquees.

My friend, a pastor's wife, is a librarian. She is struggling with consenting to this new non-gender policy required of staff. The chief librarian is "LGBTQ", etc.

The fields are ripe to harvest. I have been in the streets, a bus terminal in particularly, where people are not always in a rush. I can hardly keep from crying over what I encounter.

God, be merciful unto us and bless us with a spirit of repentance. You called us into this fellowship with you. Change us that we may be a fork in the road for the lost. And, if I perish, I perish.

the question must be asked, why does the media have such a deep seeded h2tred for Russia now that it has cast off much of its bolshevik/communist era? (fonda and founder of CEENN, didn't they have fondness for cmmnsm?)
are there offended elites?
one must ask these question when you have Putin announcing this....
Title: RUSSIA READY to Send Request to US Over Bill Browder and his $400,000 in Controversial Donations to US Democrats

you'd almost begin to think that the old russian communist money was forced out and that they came to US in the last century and made foundational commnst headways in the west.
especially when you have a mueller team doing a witch hunt for fictional russian interferance meanwhile seeing large sums of money from russian elites going into clinton campaign?
there's an awful lot of squeeking from the media for this to be just another whiny day (out of 365 days a year that they whine and obscure the news)

praying for Rand Paul as he was attacked viciously by his leftist neighbor, as they face daily threts on their lives, I pray that those aiming to fulfill Romans 13, to do good before God will be protected during these trying times.

Why can't you simply say that he was attacked, or opposed by others instead on continuing the narrative about "leftists?"

This does not sound like the words of one with a gentle spirit; willing to teach and able to persuade others.

What would make you think that the Barna group isn't Christian, and as long as they told the truth, which is getting to be a rare commodity, what difference would that make?
