John 16:8-15

8And He, when He comes, will convict the world about [the guilt of] sin [and the need for a Savior], and about righteousness, and about judgment:

9about sin [and the true nature of it], because they do not believe in Me [and My message];

10about righteousness [personal integrity and godly character], because I am going to My Father and you will no longer see Me;

11about judgment [the certainty of it], because the ruler of this world (Satan) has been judged and condemned.

12“I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear [to hear] them now.

13But when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth [full and complete truth]. For He will not speak on His own initiative, but He will speak whatever He hears [from the Father—the message regarding the Son], and He will disclose to you what is to come [in the future].

14He will glorify and honor Me, because He (the Holy Spirit) will take from what is Mine and will disclose it to you.

15All things that the Father has are Mine. Because of this I said that He [the Spirit] will take from what is Mine and will reveal it to you.
