| | The Spirit Convicts the World by John Murray
Topic: Conviction Scripture(s): John 16:8 | | Description: The interests of God's glory and the highest interests of men concern sin, righteousness and judgment, and these are the focus of the Holy Spirit's convicting activity in the world; consider to what extent your thought and purpose are occupied with these three things; the Spirit comes as advocate to convict the world, bringing a sentence of condemnation against the world; everything is sin which recoils against the glory of God; the epitome of iniquity is disbelief in Christ, who is the supreme manifestation of God; the self-complacent man is the greatest sinner in the sight of God; the iniquity of this world's judgment is exposed by their condemnation of Christ as unrighteous; the Spirit convicts the world regarding righteousness by showing God's vindication of the Christ whom the world condemned; Jesus by his death destroyed the power of the prince of this world, and opened the prison doors; the Spirit convicts the world that judgment is executed on the archenemy.

| | | | | | | Become transparent through conviction by Hans R. Waldvogel
Topic: Conviction Scripture(s): Psalm 139:23-24, Hebrews 4:12 | | Description: “Live out Thy life within me, O Jesus King of kings, Be Thou Thyself the answer to all my questionings. Live out Thy life within me; in all things have Thy way, I Thy transparent medium, Thy glory to display.” How would you like to be transparent so that nothing of yourself would appear anywhere, but only Jesus Christ with His divine attributes would shine forth from within you? That’s what you are if you’re a real follower of Jesus Christ, or that’s what you will be if He has His way with you. “Ye are the epistle of Christ written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God.” And there’s no substitute for it.
