John 15

¹⁸ If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first.

¹⁹ If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.

²⁰ Remember the word that I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well.

²¹ But they will treat you like this because of My name, since they do not know the One who sent Me.

²² If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.
