Here is the announcement of that wonderful truth, so full of encouragement and comfort, that God loves us as He loves His Son. This is what Jesus said in His last prayer for His disciples, Thou "hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me." John 17:23.

Heri ligger kundgørelsen af den vidunderlige sandhed, som er så fuld af opmuntring og trøst, at Gud elsker os, ligesom han elsker sin søn. Dette er, hvad Jesus gav udtryk for i sin sidste bøn for disciplene: Du »har elsket dem, ligesom du har elsket mig". (Joh. 17,23).
