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!

This morning, it is unfortunate that we have a chapter break here at the beginning of chapter 14, because it disrupts the flow of thought from the closing verses of chapter 13. Jesus has just shared some very difficult news with the disciples, and specifically some discouraging news with Peter regarding his impending denial of Jesus. But Jesus is going to use this opportunity to encourage and comfort them by revealing something that was NOT revealed in the Old Testament. The Rapture of the Church!
