Study Note
Jesus's high priestly prayer for unity — 'that they all may be one, as thou, Father, art in me and I in thee' — sets Trinitarian perichoresis as the pattern and source for ecclesial community. The missionary purpose clause 'that the world may believe that thou hast sent me' grounds Christian unity not in institutional form but in its witness function: a divided church obscures the divine mission. This verse has been foundational for ecumenical theology since the twentieth century, cited in the Faith and Order documents of the World Council of Churches. The prayer draws on the vine imagery of John 15 and anticipates the Paraclete's work of drawing believers into the relational life of the Trinity.
