Click here to view listing below for Jhn 17:24

THE “upper room” in Jerusalem was a place which was memorable because of what occurred there. It was in the upper room that Christ uttered those words which we have recorded in the 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th chapters of John. I remember a good brother at a prayer meeting in Peterhead, in the north of Scotland, praying for a mission, which was to be conducted by myself, asking that we might have “upper room meetings.” I quickly responded “Amen!”

What kind of meeting did Christ have in the upper room? The following seven P’s will indicate what is associated with the meeting of Christ and His disciples in the upper room.

  1. Promise of Christ’s return (John 14:1-7).
  2. Presence of the Holy Spirit to comfort and help (John 14:16-26).
  3. Peace of Christ to calm and still (John 14:27).
  4. Progress in fruit-bearing through abiding in Christ (John 15:1-17).
  5. Persecution from the world through our association with Christ (John 15:18-25).
  6. Power of the Holy Spirit through the believer, convicting of sin (John 16:7-14).
  7. Prayer of Christ for His people; an illustration of what He is doing at present (John 17).
