"But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth." (John 16: 13 NABRE).
Has the Spirit of truth guided the Church to all truth? Absolutely. Let us consider five of these truths:
#1. The Creed: The Fathers of the Church met in 325 AD in Nicaea to hammer out the main doctrines of the Church. The Holy Spirit was at work in the Council.
#2. The Cross. No cross. No crown. (Luke 24: 26).
#3. Prayer is a vital necessity. (Luke 18: 1).
#4. Eucharist: "Take and eat; this is my body." (Matthew 26: 26; Mark 14: 22; Luke 22: 19; 1 Corinthians 11: 24) And then, "Do this in memory of me."
#5. The Four Last Things: Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell. (CCC 1021 - 1022, etc)
"Stir into flame the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands.” (1 Timothy 1: 6)
The Solemnity of Pentecost is June 4, 2017.
