John 17:16 bbe — They are not of the world any more than I am of the world.

And now I come to you; and these things I say in the world so that they may have my joy complete in them.

I have given your word to them; and they are hated by the world, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

My prayer is not that you will take them out of the world, but that you will keep them from the Evil One.

Make them holy by the true word: your word is the true word.

Even as you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.

And for them I make myself holy, so that they may be made truly holy.
