THE PENTECOST

Ave Maria Purissima!

This Sunday, 31st of May, we will be celebrating and commemorating the Pentecost. It is defined by Wikipedia as follow:

Pentecost (Ancient Greek: πεντηκοστή [ἡμέρα], pentekostē [hēmera], "the fiftieth day") is one of the prominent feasts in the Christian liturgical year, celebrated on the 49th day (7 weeks) after Easter Sunday - or the 50th day inclusively, hence its name [1]. Pentecost falls on the tenth day after Ascension Thursday. Historically and symbolically related to the Jewish harvest festival of Shavuot or the day, fifty days after the Exodus, on which God gave the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai, Pentecost now also commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and other followers of Jesus as described in the Book of Acts, Chapter 2 in the New Testament. For this reason, Pentecost is sometimes described as "the Church's birthday".




1 And when the days of the Pentecost were accomplished, they were all together in one place: 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared to them parted tongues as it were of fire, and it sat upon every one of them: 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak. Acts 2:1-4


Previously, when our Beloved Mama is still with us, through her, beginning on Resurrection Sunday it was God the Father who speaks the messages and performs the Holy Sealing and He stayed until the day of Pentecost; the time when our Beloved Ingkong will come and God the Father would ascend. And since our Beloved Mama's dormitio, through our Patriarch John, the 'other angel' of the Apocalypse, Beloved Ingkong stayed with us during and after the Holy Week, in the resurrection up to this day and till Pentecost. No other heavenly spirit, aside perhaps from St.Elijah the prophet and St. John the Baptist, would ever speak and use the faculties of our Beloved Patriarch, not even God the Father, nor the Virgin Mary, nor St.Maria Virginia. This proves the fact that only our Beloved Mama, St. Maria Virginia, as testified by Beloved Ingkong thru the lips of the Patriarch; is the only and will only be the one true Holy Covenant of the Holy Trinity, then, now and in the ages to come.

Let us bear in mind as something of great importance that it is our test against all who are outside of the confine of our church and her authority who so claims that they are the new covenant of St.Maria Virginia or Beloved Ingkong. The Patriarch himself saw corporeally the Holy Spirit with the face of our Lord Jesus Christ, as that was the true face of Beloved Ingkong, yet he never even dare to say that He is the Holy Covenant and Spouse of the Holy Spirit; he is the door where our Beloved Ingkong came into the scene of public life and he will be the same door where Beloved Ingkong will consummate His tasks.

The Patriarch, as I said in previous post, is the 'another angel ascending from the rising of the sun having the writing case and the seal of God'. And having the spirit of the St. Elijah the prophet and St.John the Baptist, he, the Patriarch, is a true prophet. Well, in any rightful claim, we, as baptized Catholics in accordance with Christ, are prophet, king and priest. If we, common baptized people are prophet, king and priest, what then could be the honor and dignity of the Holy Patriarch and Founder of the Church of the Holy Spirit?

The Holy Spirit renew His enthronement with the Blessed Virgin Mary, while the holy spirits entrance the Apostles.

Now, Let us turn to our topic which is the Descent of the Holy Spirit. It is widely believed that the Third Person of the Holy Trinity, the Holy Spirit, fills primarily the Apostles and the Blessed Virgin Mary as depicted in the picture above. It is my conviction that the Holy Spirit, the third Divine Person of the Holy Trinity only possess and renew His enthronement with the Blessed Virgin Mary; and that the Apostles were in certain degree were filled by divine spirits or small letter 'h' and 's' i.e. holy spirits, compare to the capital 'H' and 'S' for HOLY SPIRIT that is pertaining to God.

God, the Holy Spirit, comes with Him several other holy and celestial beings and enthrone themselves with the Apostles and disciples, all in the form of tongues of fires, similar in occurence but differs in degree in what has happened when YHWH, from the spirits that are in Moses, enthroned or entranced the seventy two who were later prophesied. The Apostles 'filled', entranced and enthroned by the 'holy spirit in them', in full consciousness, courage, and grace, speaking with their faculties, thru the leadership of Peter, preach about the Lord JEsus Christ.



It all happened around the silent and prayerful presence of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It proves the fact that no true descent of the Holy Spirit and holy spirits without the presence of the Blessed Mother. Saint Elisabeth was filled with the grace of the Holy Spirit upon hearing the greetings of the Blessed Mother because her words are more than enough to summon the powers of the Holy Trinity.

Spirit Possession
Several messages, prophecies, and predictions from different approved and unapproved Marian apparitions, and the Exorcism in Sweden claimed that all demons were unleashed from hell, ironically the hell is empty. All the demons, intends as much as possible to entice and possess all human beings, places and even the inanimate objects - for that was the reason why the Church recommends exorcism before benediction. It is undeniable that no human being, who in his right mind could ever do heinous crimes and all abominable acts, if without in a certain degree consign himself to the demonic forces. If we believe in evil or demonic possession of human why can't we believe then of an angelic or divine spirit possession of human? Did God, in all His Mercy and Charity with His people can only allow, approve, and license the evil spirits to torment and drag men to hell by possessing them; and not the good spirits, so to say holy spirits of angels and saints?

The True Face of Beloved Ingkong
The Book of Acts recorded the following:
1 The former treatise I made, O Theophilus, of all things which Jesus began to do and to teach, 2 Until the day on which, giving commandments by the Holy Ghost to the apostles whom he had chosen, he was taken up. 3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion, by many proofs, for forty days appearing to them, and speaking of the kingdom of God. 4 And eating together with them, he commanded them, that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but should wait for the promise of the Father, which you have heard (saith he) by my mouth.




It is said that our Lord, the glorified and resurrected Jesus was with the apostles for forty days before His ascension. And that, according to the writer, as he narrate to certain Theofilus, that the Lord by the Holy Ghost was giving commandments and teaching the Apostles. The body of our Lord Jesus Christ borders the physical and the spiritual, the two dimensions of actions and activities were all under His feet. This is why no amount of physical barrier can hinder his entering and leaving. The face of the glorified and resurrected Jesus is the true face of Beloved Ingkong, the one who was seen by the seminarian Florentine; and that, I believe accounts why on our crucifixes we have the Risen Jesus and not the crucified corpus. The Resurrected and Glorified Jesus is our Beloved Ingkong.
