John 16:7-12

7But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the 12Helper will not come to you; but if I go, 3I will send Him to you. 8And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment; 9concerning sin, 4because they do not believe in Me; 10and concerning 5righteousness, because 6I go to the Father and you no longer see Me; 117and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.

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