What's the difference between Conviction and condemnation? I remember being on the back of a motor cycle and then almost running into another car. I yelled out a curse word, David yells back, you praise God out of that mouth?

Amplified Bible Chapter 16

And when He comes, He will convict and convince the world and bring demonstration to it about sin and about righteousness (uprightness of heart and right standing with God) and about judgment:

About sin, because they do not believe in Me [trust in, rely on, and adhere to Me];

About righteousness (uprightness of heart and right standing with God), because I go to My Father, and you will see Me no longer;

About judgment, because the ruler (evil genius, prince) of this world [Satan] is judged and condemned and sentence already is passed upon him

You don't what the differences between conviction and condemnation?
I remember me on the back of a motorcycle. I just got saved and I was brand new at being saved probably for about three or four months . On the back of the motorcycle with a friend of mine, he was kind of being gone crazy and we were passing cars on the wrong side of the road, on the right side of the road, and through the process, we came very, very close to a car in the opposite direction, and I let out a curse word and never thinking about, you know, how bad how that sounds or who would affects or anything like that. And I all of a sudden I heard my crazy driver friend who was being nuts, turn back to me yelling, “you paised God out of that mouth?” Instantly I was like, whoa. He's got a point there, right? I made a decision right there on the back of the motorcycle I’m not going to curse anymore. Was that condemnation or was that conviction?...... I believe it was a conviction because it right at me, Ch changed to begin for me to think about other things in my life and how they affect what I do, and how they affect others and how I come across am I promoting the love of God and the blessingings of God and all these other things that happen with with things that come out of women.
A definition of conviction is: a formal declaration that someone is guilty of a criminal offense, made by the  verdict of a jury or the decision of a judge in a court of law.
It’s declared! this is whats going on, here is the possible problem and lets see if it hold up to a standard.
Merriam-Webster defines conviction as the state of being convinced of error or compelled to admit the truth; a strong persuasion or belief; the state of being convinced . Conviction is not based on stimulus, rebellion, or going with the flow.
And then I learned that out of my mouth comes I I can speak death. I can blessings, I can speak cursings and you know, as I begin to grow as I wished and so you know, the difference between the condemnation and conviction is gonna be that God is doing it uh to make you change to make changes for his purpose or his kingdom, for his glory, and condemnation is is not that. It is basically the put down or suppress or two control. And so I just want to make sure that you know what those two differences, because in your life and in your relationships and and even in your teachings, they teaching is those things and pay attention to how they come across and how they affect you. Now, the word of God is there to convict to strengthen and correct, and so that is that is the purpose of the word of God and so just know that the difference there are differences in you have to, you know, listen with your own heart and with your own mind and compare it to the one I've God and see how that goes.
