King James Version Chapter 16
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
Intro: The verbs in scripture are the bearing walls. In reference to the Holy Spirit, the bearing wall is “he will reprove”.
Verse 8 provides a two-fold work that is paramount in grasping the Sufficient work of the Holy Spirit.
Conviction: elencho (eh-lane-co) to treat with contempt or to convict.
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
righteousness (standard) n. — a standard determining what is in conformity to justice, law, or morality as given by God.
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
C. Sentence in vs 11:
judgment n. — an event for the legal determination of rights and the assignment of rewards and punishments; especially used of the final event of God’s judgment.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:
