Context of John 15:24
22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now they have no excuse for their sin. 23The one who hates me also hates my Father. If I had not done the works among them that no one else has done, they would not be guilty of sin. Now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 25But this happened so that the statement written in their law might be fulfilled: They hated me for no reason. 26“When the Counselor comes, the one I will send to you from the Father — the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father — he will testify about me.
