John 16:3

Coming Testimony And Rejection

² They will throw you out of the synagogues. Yes, the hour comes that whoever kills you will think that he offered service to God. ³ These things they will do because they have not known the Father or Me. ⁴ I tell you these things so you will remember that I told you when the time comes. I did not tell this from the beginning because I was with you.
