In John 16, Jesus explains the ministry of the Holy Spirit in a world that stands guilty before a holy God. In this sermon, we see how the Spirit convicts the world concerning sin, righteousness, and judgment, exposing man’s need for salvation and pointing directly to Jesus Christ as the only hope for sinners.
As Jesus prepares His disciples for His departure, He reminds them that the coming of the Holy Spirit is not a loss, but a gift. This message unpacks the seriousness of unbelief, the perfection of Christ’s righteousness, and the certainty of divine judgment, while also holding out the mercy of God in the gospel. The same Spirit who convicts also drives sinners to the Savior who bore wrath in their place and offers forgiveness, righteousness, and peace with God.
Key Points: 1. Sin 2. Righteousness 3. Judgment

In John 18:28–40, Jesus stands before Pilate as the innocent King while the world around Him rejects the truth standing right in front of them.

The truth is not merely something to understand—it is found in the person of Jesus Christ.
