  2. The Ministry of the Holy SpiritJohn 16:4b-15 It only took a few days for people to change from crying out “Hosanna” to Jesus to “Crucify Him.” After Jesus instituted the ordinance of Communion, He comforted and taught His disciples important truths

  3. Troubled DisciplesJohn 16:4-6 The persecution that had been directed at Jesus would shift to His disciples after His departure The disciples’ hearts were filled with sorrow at the prospect of Jesus leaving and coming persecution

  4. Troubled DisciplesJohn 16:4-6 The focus of a life lived by the Holy Spirit is God’s glory and holiness and not personal happiness

  5. The Advantage of Jesus’ Departure John 16:7 The coming of the Holy Spirit was the advantage gained by Jesus’ departure to the Father The Holy Spirit’s increased ministry would begin after Jesus’ crucifixion, resurrection and ascension

  6. The Advantage of Jesus’ Departure John 16:7 The Holy Spirit’s coming would be a blessing to them in both the temporal realm and the future in eternity Each person of the triune God works in perfect harmony with each other In Creation: The Father - Genesis 1:1; The Son - Colossians 1:16; The Spirit - Genesis 1:2; Psalm 33:6

  7. The Advantage of Jesus’ Departure John 16:7 Jesus’ resurrection: The Father - Acts 2:24; 2 Cor. 4:14; The Son - John 2:14; 10:18; The Spirit - Rom. 8:11 Salvation: Father - Jn 6:37, 44, 65; Son - Rom. 3:21-26; Jn 14:6; Spirit - Jn 16:8-11; Rom 8:11; Titus 3:5

  8. The Advantage of Jesus’ Departure John 16:7 The Holy Spirit is deity - Acts 5:3-4 He is called Spirit of - the Lord . . . God . . . Christ . . . Jesus . . . Truth

  9. The Convicting Work of the Holy Spirit John16:8-11 Convict (ejlevgcw /elegcho) = to bring to light, bring about knowledge; to expose error - to reprove; Conviction may or may not bring about repentance - 2 Corinthians 7:10 The Holy Spirit reveals truth, exposes sin & brings about guilt - a person’s response reveals their heart

  10. The Convicting Work of the Holy Spirit John16:8-11 The Holy Spirit uses many means to bring about conviction of sin - all trace back to Biblical truth Conviction of sin reveals the need of a savior - repentance & faith brings salvation, unbelief will condemn

  11. The Convicting Work of the Holy Spirit John16:8-11 Conviction of righteousness is related to Jesus’ going to the Father Jesus’ resurrection & ascension proved His righteousness with His sacrifice confirmed worthy & accepted

  12. The Convicting Work of the Holy Spirit John16:8-11 Conviction of judgment is in respect to the devil being judged - condemned by Jesus’ resurrection Denial of Hell & lacking fear of God does not remove the reality or danger of both - Matt. 25; Rev. 20

  13. The Guiding Work of the Holy SpiritJohn16:12-13 The disciples’ limits in bearing up were due to their own weakness and the Holy Spirit not yet coming The Spirit of truth would lead them to truth - resulting in the New Testament - 1 Cor. 2:13; 1 Peter 1:19-21

  14. The Guiding Work of the Holy SpiritJohn16:12-13 Current believers are taught by the Spirit to discern righteousness and truth and apply God’s word to life The Spirit of truth guides to truth which is embodied in Jesus (John 14:6) and originates from the Father

  15. The Guiding Work of the Holy SpiritJohn16:12-13 The Holy Spirit is a person: He has a mind (Rom. 8:27); emotions (Eph. 4:30), and a will (1 Cor. 12:11)

  16. The Glorifying Work of the Holy SpiritJohn 16:14 The Father and the Son glorify each other & both are glorified by the Spirit - who does not seek glory Among the ways the Spirit glorifies Jesus is by taking what belongs to Jesus & disclosing it to the disciples

  17. The Disclosing Work of the Holy Spirit Jesus would reveal the “more things” through the Holy Spirit - resulting in the Epistles & NT prophecy

  18. The Disclosing Work of the Holy Spirit The ministry of the Holy Spirit gives us confidence that the Bible is faithful and true to God’s revelation We proclaim the Gospel - but it is the Holy Spirit who convicts, regenerates and draws to Christ and salvation
