John 16:1-15

“I have told you these things to keep you from stumbling. They will ban you from the synagogues.   In fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering service   to God. They will do these things because they haven’t known   the Father or me. But I have told you these things so that when their time   comes you will remember   I told them to you. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you. But now I am going away   to him who sent me, and not one of you asks me, ‘Where are you going? ’   Yet, because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth.   It is for your benefit that I go away, because if I don’t go away the Counselor will not come to you. If I go, I will send him to you.   When he comes, he will convict the world about sin, righteousness, and judgment: About sin, because they do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father   and you will no longer see me; and about judgment,   because the ruler of this world   has been judged.   “I still have many things to tell you, but you can’t bear them now.   When the Spirit of truth   comes, he will guide you into all the truth.   For he will not speak on his own, but he will speak whatever he hears. He will also declare to you what is to come. He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and declare it to you. Everything the Father   has is mine.   This is why I told you that he takes from what is mine and will declare it to you.
