John 15:22-27

22They would not be guilty if I had not come and spoken to them. But now they have no excuse for their sin.

23Anyone who hates me also hates my Father.

24If I hadn’t done such miraculous signs among them that no one else could do, they would not be guilty. But as it is, they have seen everything I did, yet they still hate me and my Father.

25This fulfills what is written in their Scriptures: ‘They hated me without cause.’

26“But I will send you the Advocate —the Spirit of truth. He will come to you from the Father and will testify all about me.

27And you must also testify about me because you have been with me from the beginning of my ministry.
