The last two weeks we have slowed down to look closely at a very specific “fruit" that He desires to produce in us and through us: love! In our passage today, Jesus transitions to another relationship that He has yet to mention; the relationship between the world and the believer. The quick summary of this passage is: Do not be surprised! The world hates Jesus and therefore the world will hate you!

As you turn to chapter 13 of John, you will see nothing but RED lettering through the end of chapter 17. This section of Scripture is known as the Upper Room Discourse or the Farewell Discourse! Jesus reveals some things here, that He has not revealed before. Many of these things would have been shocking to the disciples and would have felt contradictory to what they believed as an Orthodox Jew. One such truth was that of loving one another according to a new and higher standard, which we will consider this morning.
