Holy Spirit invites us to get past the pissing contest between Jew and Gentile, between my religion and yours, and just start living out the universal way of Love that Jesus lived.
Those who wish to once again limit Holy Spirit to Pharisitical litmus tests do a disservice. They reduce the Love of Jesus down to the size of their own. But that’s okay, love is still love regardless. Better some love than none. Yet, better still FULL love than just some.
Holy Spirit takes the compassion, justice, and peace for which Jesus died and names it and resurrects it in every tongue and tribe. In this way the Spirit and Gospel of Christ is spread to all the corners of the earth, not by making doctrinal ditto heads, but by making his universal Love grow in ever greater diversity.
