John 15:21

The World's Hatred For The Disciples

²⁰ Remember what I told you, 'A slave is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they obeyed my word, they will obey yours too. ²¹ But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because 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. But they no longer have any excuse for their sin.
