In My Name John 14:13–14 ,  21–24 Excerpt In the biblical period, one’s name represented the person; it was a summary statement of someone’s character or reputation ( 14:14 ). The name of Jesus pointed to his attributes, his person, and all that he had accomplished. It was no mere magical formula, but a confession of dependence, trust, and confidence in the person and work of Jesus the Messiah. Again the obedient saint would be the one who experiences God in this earthly life ( 14:21 ). Jesus’ answer to Judas’ questions ( 14:22–24 ) brings the discussion around full-circle back to  13:34  (cf.  14:23 ).  More Hughes, Robert B., and J. Carl Laney.  Tyndale Concise Bible Commentary .

The “one headed for destruction” ( 17:12 ) was Judas, whose betrayal was anticipated in Psalm 41:9 ( cf.   John 13:18 ). The way to sanctification is through God’s Word becoming a reality in a believer’s life ( 17:17 ; cf . 13:17 ).
