John 15:18-27 - The World's Hatred For The Disciples

18 If the world hate you, ye know it hated me, before it hated you. 19 If ye were of the world, the world would love its own; but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. 20 Remember the word that I said to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. 21 But all these things will they do to you, for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 He that hateth me, hateth my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which no other did, they had not had sin: 24 but now have they seen them, and yet hated both me and my Father. 25 So that the word which is written in their law is fulfilled, They hated me without a cause.

26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me. 27 Ye also testify, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
