John 15:21

The World's Hatred For The Disciples

²⁰ Remember the word I spoke to you: ‘A slave is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will also keep yours. ²¹ But they will do all these things to you on account of My name, because they don’t know the One who sent Me. ²² If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin. Now they have no excuse for their sin.
