The World’s Hatred
John 15:18-25
The World’s Hatred
18 “If
the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. 19
If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you
are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the
world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said
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 keep
yours also. 21 But all these things they will do
to you for My name’s sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me. 22
If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, but now
they have no excuse for their sin. 23 He who hates
Me hates My Father also. 24 If I had not done among
them the works which no one else did, they would have no sin; but now
they have seen and also hated both Me and My Father. 25
But this happened that the word might be fulfilled which is written
in their law, ‘They hated Me without a cause.’
