Synopsis
Excerpt from The Complete Works of Stephen Charnock, B. D, Vol. 4: Containing, Discourses on the Knowledge of God; Unbelief; The Lord's Supper, &C
This chapter contains Christ's last prayer with his disciples, after his fare well sermon, which began after Judas his departure, John xiii. 31, and ends at the end Of the l6th chapter. The design of his sermon and that of his prayer was one and the same; his discourse to them was, that they might have peace in him, John xvi. 33; that they might acquiesce in him for peace with God that peace of conscience was only to be possessed by the knowledge and love of Christ. His prayer for them in their hearing was, that they might have a firm and full joy, ver. 13; that they might have an antidote against all their fears and troubles they should meet with in the world, and a strong foundation for their own supplications to God. Zanchy calls it the foundation of the church from the beginning of the world to the end Of it. It always had, and always will have, its efficacy for every believer; it is a copy left upon the earth of What he doth intercede for as an advocate in heaven. By an inspection into it, we may know what Christ is doing above; for it was that his people might have a full joy, a strong cordial in all afflictions, desertions, temptations.
Some think it to be the same with that prayer in the garden; but that Opinion hath no firm foundation.1'
