People's Commentary (NT)
John 17:17
Sanctify them through thy truth; thy word is truth. To sanctify
is to render holy, or to consecrate. Those sanctified are saints. The
means of canonization is not a Pope, but the "truth"; and, lest some
should mistake, Christ adds,
Thy word is truth. He prays for their consecration by the power of
the word in their hearts. Every disciple should be thus consecrated,
but the means is not a miraculous work of grace, but the reception of
God's word into our hearts and the complete surrender to his will
spoken in his word.
