The Mission of the Holy Spirit



"The dove descending breaks the air With flame of incandescent terror Of which the tongues declare The one discharge from sin and error. The only hope, or else despair Lies in the choice of pyre or pyre- To be redeemed from fire by fire. Who then devised the torment? Love. Love is the unfamiliar Name Behind the hands that wove The intolerable shirt of flame Which human power cannot remove. We only live, only suspire Consumed by either fire or fire.” – T. S. Eliot My sermon for today, Pentecost Sunday, can be read here. Stained glass detail from St Mary's Episcopal Cathedral in Glasgow.
