John 16:8‑15• 8And when come, he will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
 9of sin, because they believe not on me;
 10of righteousness, because I go unto my Father, and ye behold me no more;
 11of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
 12I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear [them] now.
 13Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, shall have come, he will guide you in all the truth; for he will not speak from himself, but whatever he shall hear he will speak; and he will announce to you the things to come.
 14He will glorify me, for he will receive of mine, and will announce [it] to you.

Titus 2:13• 13looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ; (Titus 2:13)
• To us it is faith, for we have not yet the thing hoped for—the glory due to that righteousness which is ours. Christ possesses it, so that we know what we hope for. It is by the Spirit that we know it, and that we have the assurance of the righteousness which gives us the title to possess it. (“Galatians 5” by J.N. Darby)
• It is not righteousness that we wait for, but the fulfillment of the hope that belongs to those who are already justified through faith in Christ Jesus. Being justified by faith we "rejoice in hope of the glory of God" (Rom. 5:2). Righteousness gives me the glory, not simply grace....Under law, righteousness demands that I should be kept out of glory; for, not having kept the law, "all have sinned and come short of the glory". Under grace, righteousness demands that the believer should go into glory, even as righteousness is declared in setting Christ in the glory (John 16:10). (“Galatians 5” by H. Smith)
