John 15

Disciples’ Relation to the World

18 "If the world hates you [and it does], know that it has hated Me before it hated you.19 If you belonged to the world, the world would love [you as] its own and would treat you with affection. But you are not of the world [you no longer belong to it], but I have chosen you out of the world. And because of this the world hates you.
