The most profound prayer ever uttered. John MacArthur expounds John 17, where Christ intercedes for His own and secures their eternal glory. Read more.
Our Savior Who Prays is a volume in the Great Chapters of the Bible series, treating the High Priestly Prayer of John 17. John MacArthur works through the prayer phrase by phrase: Christ praying for His own glory, then for the eleven, then for all who would believe through their word, asking that they be kept, sanctified, united, and finally brought to behold His glory. Of all the prayers of Jesus, this one is the most profound and magnificent, its words plain and its substance immense.
This exposition serves believers who want assurance grounded in Christ's intercession rather than in their own consistency, and those seeking to understand what Jesus actually asks of the Father on their behalf. It suits personal study, small group work in John's Gospel, and pastoral teaching on prayer and the security of the saints. Readers come away with a clearer sense of the Savior's care and the certainty of the glory He has secured.
