2 You will be thrown out of the synagogue. In fact, a time is coming when those who kill you will think they are doing God a favor.
3 They will do things like that because they do not know the Father or me.
4 "Why have I told you this? So that when the time comes, you will remember that I warned you. I didn't tell you this at first because I was with you.
5 "Now I am going to the One who sent me. But none of you asks me, 'Where are you going?'
6 Because I have said these things, you are filled with sadness.
7 "But what I'm about to tell you is true. It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Friend will not come to help you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
8 When he comes, he will prove that the world's people are guilty. He will prove their guilt concerning sin and godliness and judgment.
