John 16:1-4

1“I have spoken these things to you so that you may be kept from stumbling.

2They will throw you out of the synagogues. Yes, an hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.

3They will do these things because they have never known the Father or Me.

4But I have spoken these things to you so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you of them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.”
