| John 15:18-21,16:2 18 If the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, and because I have chosen you out of the world, the world therefore hates 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 kept my word [practiced my teachings], they will keep yours also. 21 But they will do all these things to you for my name's sake, because they do not know not him who sent me. 2 They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming when whoever kills you will think that he is doing a service to God. | |||||||||
