If it wasn't for the conviction of sin John 16:8-9 I would have never come to the place of repentance, never, the Lord revealed himself to me he revealed my sin he revealed that I was not going to go to heaven when I die meaning I was going to go to hell, he showed all of that to me within 10 seconds, and if you read those verses carefully the Holy Spirit wants to do that to each person, this is what the world needs, if it wasn't for that experience of the conviction of sin I would not be what I am today in Christ
