“Christ is hated because sin is loved.”–Matthew Henry; 1662-1714. The hatred of the world:
- Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. 2 Timothy 3:12
- Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:10
- And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. Matthew 10:22 • Mark 13:13
- Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. Matthew 24:9
- If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remember the word that I said 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. But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me. John 15:18-21
