"I have told you this, so that you will not give up your faith.
2
You will be expelled from the synagogues, and the time will come when those who kill you will think that by doing this they are serving God.
3
People will do these things to you because they have not known either the Father or me.
4
But I have told you this, so that when the time comes for them to do these things, you will remember what I told you. "I did not tell you these things at the beginning, for I was with you.
5
But now I am going to him who sent me, yet none of you asks me where I am going.
6
And now that I have told you, your hearts are full of sadness.
7
But I am telling you the truth: it is better for you that I go away, because if I do not go, the Helper will not come to you. But if I do go away, then I will send him to you.
8
And when he comes, he will prove to the people of the world that they are wrong about sin and about what is right and about God's judgment.
9
They are wrong about sin, because they do not believe in me;
10
they are wrong about what is right, because I am going to the Father and you will not see me any more;
11
and they are wrong about judgment, because the ruler of this world has already been judged.
