John:15:18-16

* »
If the world hates you ,
know that it hated me before it hated you .
*
If you were of the world ,
the world would love its own .
But because you are not of the world ,
but I chose you out of the world ,
therefore the world hates you .
*
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 .
*
But all this they will do to you for my name '
s sake ,
because they do not know him who sent me .
*
If I had not come and spoken to them ,
they would not have sin ,
but now they have no excuse for their sin .
*
He who hates me hates my Father also .
*
If I had not done among them the works which no one else did ,
they would not have sin ;
but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father .
*
But this is to fulfill the word that is written in their law ,
They hated me without a cause .
* »
But when the Counselor comes ,
whom I shall send to you from the Father ,
the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father ,
he will testify of me .
*
And you also will bear witness ,
because you have been with me from the beginning .
