Truth Exposed:  John 17

John 17 is the high priestly prayer of Jesus at the end of the Passover meal, or what we call, the Last Supper.  Verse 9 states that Jesus did NOT pray for the world, only those the Father had given him.  How very interesting.  The Father gave him the 12 disciples:  Matthew 10:2-4; Mark 3:16-19; Luke 6:12-19, which eventually rose to 120 +.  Acts 1:13-15.  Why just for this handful?  Think!!!!!  Think about the political situation, their calling, and their needs.   The lesson:  am I praying for my believing friends?
