The oneness Jesus had with His Father is revealed to us for two reasons:

1. It shows us the pattern for our relationship with God
  • John 17:20-23 - Jesus' prayer to the Father
  • John 14:15, 20-21, 23 - His obedience to the Father
  • John 6:56 - Remain in Jesus; He remains in the Father.
  • ~John 15:1-16 - Jesus is the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
2. It shows us the pattern for our relationship with each other
  • John 15:17 - This is my command: Love each other.

Key Phrase: Jesus was the pattern to follow for our relationship with God and each other
