Often imagines that the Holy Spirit gave them

John 16:7-11 (NKJV)
. . . I will send Him to you. [8] And
when He has come, He will convict the
world of sin, and of righteousness, and
of judgment: [9] of sin, because they
do not believe in Me; [10] of
righteousness, because I go to My
Father and you see Me no more; [11]
of judgment, because the ruler of this
world is judged.
