John Chapter 15 Verse 20‹Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.›

‹If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.›

‹These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and› [that] ‹your joy might be full.›

‹This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.›

‹Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.›

‹Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.›

‹Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.›

‹Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and› [that] ‹your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.›

‹These things I command you, that ye love one another.›

‹If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before› [it hated] ‹you.›

‹If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.›

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

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

‹He that hateth me hateth my Father also.›

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

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

‹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 testify of me:›

‹And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.›

‹These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.›

‹They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.›

‹And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.›
