unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you
John 14:16-17a "And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever--the Spirit of truth."
John 14:26 "But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you."
John 15:26 "When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father--the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father--he will testify about me."
but if I go, I will send him to you
John 7:38-39 "Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them." By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
about sin, because people do not believe in me
John 15:22 "They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me."
about righteousness
Acts 3:14 "You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you."
Acts 7:52-53 "Was there ever a prophet your ancestors did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him--you who have received the law that was given through angels but have not obeyed it."
