John 16:7-14
But what I’m about to tell you is true. It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Friend will not come to help you. But if I go, I will send him to you.When he comes, he will prove that the world’s people are guilty. He will prove their guilt concerning sin and godliness and judgment.The world is guilty as far as sin is concerned. That’s because people do not believe in me.The world is guilty as far as godliness is concerned. That’s because I am going to the Father, where you can’t see me anymore.The world is guilty as far as judgment is concerned. That’s because the devil, the prince of this world, has already been judged.“ I have much more to say to you. It is more than you can handle right now.But when the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own. He will speak only what he hears. And he will tell you what is still going to happen.He will bring me glory. That’s because what he receives from me he will show to you.
