The World's Hatred -- Pastor Patrick Hines Sermon (John 15:18-25)

[John 15:18-25 NASB20] 18 "If the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before [it hated] you. 19 "If you were of the world, the world would love [you as] its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you. 20 "Remember the word that I said to you, 'A slave is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they followed My word, they will follow yours also. 21 "But all these things they will do 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 have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 "The one who hates Me hates My Father also. 24 "If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated Me and My Father as well. 25 "But [this has happened] so that the word that is written in their Law will be fulfilled: 'THEY HATED ME FOR NO REASON.'
