John 15:18-27

Listen to John 15:18-27

18 If the world hateth you, ye know that it hath hated me before [it hated] you.

19 If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

20 Remember the word that I said unto you, A servant is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also.

21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.

22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin.

23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

24 If I had not done among them the works which none other did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.

25 But [this cometh to pass], that the word may be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall bear witness of me:

27 and ye also bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

The way we interact with each other gives us pleasure, and sometimes pain as well. What are the most important relationships in your life? Your spouse? Your kids? For the Christian, the most important relationship should always be with Jesus Christ. But we also must understand that the world will fight us tooth and nail as we attempt to share the special relationship we can have with God. That's the message of John chapter fifteen. Here's Bill Luebkemann with more.

The World Hates Jesus' Disciples - John 15:18-27

Bill Luebkemann

Imagine a book titled “The Most Well-Known Chapters in the Bible”. If such a book existed, then it would most assuredly contain John chapter fifteen. Welcome to Hope From the Word, with Pastor Bill Luebkemann. Bill is the senior Pastor at Calvary Chapel of Marlton, and today we continue a look at John chapter fifteen. This chapter tells us much about our relationship with the Lord, and our relationship with each other as well. As Christians, we must not expect the world to like us or even tolerate us! The world hated Jesus's disciples, and we can expect similar treatment. Here's Pastor Bill Luebkemann...
