John 15:18-27
“ If the world hates you, understand that it hated me before it hated you.If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of it, the world hates you.Remember the word I spoke to you:‘ A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they don’t know the one who sent me.If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now they have no excuse for their sin.The one who hates me also hates my Father.If I had not done the works among them that no one else has done, they would not be guilty of sin. Now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.But this happened so that the statement written in their law might be fulfilled: They hated me for no reason.“ When the Counselor comes, the one I will send to you from the Father— the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father— he will testify about me.You also will testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
