05-11-08 homily, Fr. Simon, Part 2

Part 2 of 3 in which Fr. Richard Simon preaches & teaches about the Holy Spirit - the transparent member of the Trinity - the Third Person of that relationship which is God in his 05-11-08 Roman Catholic Homily for Pentecost Sunday on May 11, 2008. He goes on to state that the Holy Spirit is the First Person of the Trinity that you met, because it is the Holy Spirit who first leads us to Jesus. Fr. Simon seriously suggest that Catholics say: "In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Breath" every time they cross themselves. Part 2 of 3.

Fr. Simon tosses out more interesting facts, like how in 70 AD Rabbi Yochanon ben Zakkai predicted that General Vespasian would be emperor within a year. Or, that the most recent appearance of the Shekinah cloud was at Fatima in 1917. Or, once Jesus had died, the annual Yom Kippur sacrifice at the Temple in Jerusalem wasn't acceptable to God ever again - the cloth would never again change from blood red to white, as it had done for centuries before, since the Arc of the Covenant was created.
