THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE
John 16:8 in context
John 16:5–11
5
But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’
6
But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.
7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I don’t go away, the Counselor won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
8
Selected verse
When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment;
9

10
about righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you won’t see me any more;
11
about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.
