"These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you."
In today's quote Jesus reminded His disciples how the Jews would completely disown them after He had ascended.
We know through the writings of the apostle Paul that what Jesus promised to His disciples in the above quote did indeed happen just as He had predicted. Christians were chased out of the temple and many were stoned and crucified for their belief in Jesus.~
