The Advocate
Channel: Emmanuel UC, Brampton
Date: 2021-05-23

On Pentecost, we celebrate and remember the arrival of the Holy Spirit, the one who was described by Jesus as a Helper and an Advocate for us. One of the biggest disagreements between Eastern and Western Christianity is the role of the Spirit. In the West, we barely refer to it, directing our prayers to the Father and the Son. Who is this mysterious third person of the Trinity? What role did They have at Pentecost, and how does that role continue today?
