Believers Sent by Christ, as Christ is sent by the Father
John 17:18
HERE is a great fact mentioned, namely, that the Father sent the Son into the world. In this our Lord’s disciples had believed. Jesus says himself, “They have believed that thou didst send me.” It is one of the first essentials of saving faith to believe in Christ as the sent one of God.
