Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 15:24-26

"If I had not done among them the works which none other did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father. But [this cometh to pass], that the word may be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall bear witness of me:" — John 15:24-26 (ASV)

But now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father. But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

Notice that blessed truth—that even that Divine Person, the Holy Ghost, when he comes to visit us, has nothing better to speak of than our Lord Jesus Christ: He shall testify of me. Even the Holy Spirit, when he exercises the function of the Comforter, testifies of Christ. Is he not the consolation of Israel? Well did the poet write:

"You dear Redeemer, dying Lamb,
We love to hear of you;
No music's like your charming name,
Nor half so sweet can be."
