John 16:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ ·He will prove to them that sin is not believing in me [^Lconcerning sin, because they do not believe in me]. ¹⁰ ·He will prove to them that being right with God comes from my going to the Father and not being seen anymore [^Lconcerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and you will no longer see me; ^Cprobably means the Spirit will convict the world of its empty righteousness because Jesus is no longer present to model true righteousness]. ¹¹ ·And the Helper will prove to them that judgment happened when the ruler of this world was judged [^Lconcerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged; ^Cprobably means the Spirit will convict the world that its judgments are false because Satan—the one they follow—has been condemned by Christ’s victory on the cross].
