John 16:7-11 “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.”
The Holy Spirit is the Comforter that we need in this day. Without Him, there would be no conviction of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment; and without that conviction, there would be no salvation, no saving knowledge of Christ, and no fear of judgment.
