Fr. Mark Mary: 本集探讨了圣灵在祈祷和崇拜中的重要性，以及祂在三位一体中的地位。圣安博的著作强调了圣灵的神性及其恩典的彰显。圣灵并非耶稣的替代品，而是与父神和圣子同质，同享神圣使命和权能。祂值得我们敬拜和赞美。 然而，圣灵的运作通常是隐藏的，祂引导我们专注于耶稣和父神。圣灵的隐藏并非表示祂不重要，而是祂谦卑地将我们的注意力引向耶稣，并通过祂的话语来启示我们。五旬节是圣灵显现的特殊时刻，我们应该在这个时刻特别关注祂，并感谢祂在我们生命中隐藏的作为。 总而言之，圣灵是神，是三位一体中不可分割的一部分，祂的恩典提升善行，焚烧罪恶。虽然祂的运作通常隐藏，但祂的引导和作用是真实且有效的。我们应该敬拜祂，并感谢祂带领我们更加认识耶稣。

It draws upon St. Ambrose's writing to emphasize the Holy Spirit's distinct divinity and the unity of the divine power within the Trinity. The chapter clarifies the Holy Spirit's hidden yet crucial role in guiding our focus toward Jesus and the Father.
  • The Holy Spirit is God, not a substitute for Jesus.
  • The Holy Spirit's action is characterized by divine self-effacement, focusing our attention on Jesus and the Father.
  • The Holy Spirit's role is to reveal Christ and guide us in faith.

Shownotes Transcript

Sometimes it feels like Jesus gets more attention than the Holy Spirit. Fr. Mark-Mary, with help from a reading by  St. Ambrose, dives into the role of the Holy Spirit in our prayer, and how we ought to worship the third person of the Blessed Trinity. Today’s focus is the mystery of the Descent of the Holy Spirit and we will be praying one decade of the Rosary.
