John
15:18-27
18
'IF THE WORLD HATES YOU,
KEEP
IN MIND THAT IT HATED ME FIRST,
19
If you belonged to the World,
It
would love you as its own.
AS
IT IS, YOU DO NOT BELONG TO THE WORLD,
BUT
I HAVE CHOSEN YOU OUT OF THE WORLD.
THAT
IS WHY THE WORLD HATES YOU.
20
Remember the Words I spoke to you:
'No
Servant is greater than his master.'
IF
THEY PERSECUTED ME,
THEY
WILL PERSECUTE YOU ALSO.
If
they Obeyed My Teaching, they will Obey yours also.
21
THEY WILL TREAT YOU THIS WAY BECAUSE OF MY NAME,
FOR
THEY DO NOT KNOW THE ONE WHO SENT ME.
22
If I had not come and spoken to them,
They
would not be Guilty of Sin.
Now,
however, they have No Excuse for their Sin.
23
HE WHO HATES ME HATES MY FATHER AS WELL.
24
If I had not done among them what No One else did,
They
would not be Guilty of Sin.
But
now they have seen these miracles,
AND
YET THEY HAVE HATED BOTH ME AND MY FATHER.
25
This is to fulfill what is written in their Law:
THEY
HATED ME WITHOUT REASON.'
26
'When the Counselor comes,
Whom
I will send to you from the Father,
The
Spirit of Truth Who goes out from the Father,
He
will Testify about Me;
27
BUT YOU ALSO MUST TESTIFY,
For
you have been with Me from the beginning.
(John
15:1-27)
American
Christians have forgotten
That
America is part of the World,
And
America and the World Hate Christ Jesus,
God
the Father,
And
All who follow Christ Jesus and His Word.
The
Church has Pretended
That
America is a beneficent place,
When
it is not.
It is
ruled by the “god” of this Age
As is
every other part of the World.
(1
John 5:19)
If we
Obey the Commands of Christ,
We do
not belong to the World.
If we
do not Obey the Commands of Christ,
We are
part of the World.
If we
love Christ Jesus and those who belong to Him,
We
Obey His Command to Love.
'This
is Love:
That
we walk in Obedience to His Commands.'
(2
John 6)
The
World Hates Christ Jesus
Because
He tells the World
That
what they do is Evil.
(John
7:7)
Everyone
who belongs to Christ Jesus
Must
Testify to the Truth of the Word of God,
Which
is One with Christ Jesus.
And
for this reason they will be Persecuted.
The
World Hates the Truth.
