John 16-18

John 17: 14-19
I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.  I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.  They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.   As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.  And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified  through the truth.

We are on a mission in this world to be disciples and to make disciples.  We are not of this world, but we are in this world.  Our mission is a co-mission.  Jesus is with us always, even unto the end of the age.  Jesus is The Truth, and Truth comes from God's Word.
