Page 6 - The Promise of Persecution
P. 6
unto you, The servant is not greater than
his lord. If they have persecuted me, they
will also persecute you; if they have kept
my saying, they will keep yours also.
21 But all these things will they do unto
you for my name’s sake, because they
know not him that sent me.”
Heavenly Father, we do ask tonight Your
blessings upon the reading of holy Scripture.
And, Father, we pray this evening that You'll
speak to us by Thy Holy Spirit, and, Lord, that
we would consider the soberness of the text that
we're coming to, for it's in Christ Jesus' name
we pray, Amen.
You may be seated. Now, last week we
looked at verses 16 and 17 in John chapter
15, and we found four promises in verse 16.
