Through [Christ], we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. (Eph. 2:18)
“I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one.” (John 17:23)
“Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it. . . . And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.”—There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call—one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.—“When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be your name.” (John 14:13–14, 16–17; Eph. 4:4–6; Luke 11:2)
Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way . . . let us draw near. (Heb. 10:19–20, 22)
