The Spirit or Flesh?: Monday, April 24th, 2017

Listen to the homily here.

Notes:

Jesus teaching through natural to supernatural

·      “The wind blows where it wills,
and you can hear the sound it makes,
but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes;
so it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit."

o   Wind: calm, windy, gusts, dangerous (tornado, hurricane, blizzard)

o   If the physical world can do this, how about the spiritual world?

The Acts of the Apostles—the Gospel of the Holy Spirit

·      The Spirit: “The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the face of the waters.  And God said, “Let there be light”

·      “As they prayed, the place where they were gathered shook,
and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit
and continued to speak the word of God with boldness.”
