John 15:21 Context
19If ye were of the world, the world would loue his owne: But because yee are not of the world, but I haue chosen you out of the world, therfore the world hateth you. 20Remember the word that I said vnto you, The seruant is not greater then the Lord: if they haue persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they haue kept my saying, they will keepe yours also. 21But all these things will they doe vnto you for my Names sake, because they know not him that sent me. 22If I had not come, and spoken vnto them, they had not had sinne: but now they haue no cloke for their sinne. 23He that hateth me, hateth my Father also.
