Yes my friend, you are quite right, it's the Holy Spirit's job to convict the world of it's sin and sins... and when I say sin ( it means, of their unbelief in the risen savorier ) .
Yes, some either don't realize, or refuse the truth, that rejecting the truth of Jesus Christ and the Gospel message is SIN !
It's called not obeying the truth that the writer of Hebrews was writing about.

" Even His disciples did not get the truth right away "
Yes, the Homer Simpson moment, DUH !

But, the Apostle John most likely was the one who understood this truth the most.

It's quite amazing how often Jesus repeated and re-framed his approcah to prepare the deciples for His death...they just didn't get it for quite some time. Enough can't be said about the resurrection...for it was after this many of the truths became clear to them. I think the same is for us...without the ressurection there is no Christianity. When we really grasp 'HE IS ALIVE'...it changes everything in how we see life and death...and pretty much everything else.
