Jesus continues His high priestly prayer on behalf of His people. In these final moments of prayer, He petitions the Father for the unity of all who will believe in Him through the apostles' word. Yet this unity is not merely for the church's own benefit; it serves a greater purpose: the evangelization of the world, that the world may believe the Father sent the Son. Finally, Jesus' prayer looks toward the eschatological hope of His people. He longs for the day when they will be with Him to behold His glory and experience the fullness of the love shared between the Father and the Son.
