1. “I have told you these things to keep you from stumbling.
2. 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.
3. They will do these things because they haven’t known the Father or Me.
4. But I have told you these things so that when their time comes you may remember I told them to you. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
5. “But now I am going away to Him who sent Me, and not one of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going? ’
6. Yet, because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.
7. 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.
8. When He comes, He will convict the world about sin, righteousness, and judgment:
9. About sin, because they do not believe in Me;
10. about righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see Me;
11. and about judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.
