John 17:16-19

"They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified."

They are not of the world, even as I am not of it

John 13:10-11  Jesus answered, "Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet; their whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you." For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean.

As you have sent me into the world

John 3:17  For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

I have sent them into the world
