Why did the world hate Jesus?

Jesus was hated for the following three reasons:

  1. He claimed to be the son of God. His haters concluded that this was blasphemy as claiming to be a son of God would mean that Jesus was also God.
  2. He testified that evil rules this world.
  3. He claimed to have been sent by God the Father to impart knowledge to people and absolve people of the crime of original sin committed by Adam and Eve.
