John 16:7

Jesus' Departure And The Coming Of The Holy Spirit

⁶ But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. ⁷ But yet I tell you the truth: it is profitable for you that I go away. For if I go not away, the Paraclete will not come to you. But if I go away, I will send him to you. ⁸ And when he has come, he will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.
